Things that Make Me Feel Old
April 4, 2008
- I slipped and fell in the bathtub last night. I’m growing a big ol’ bruise. Just like an old woman.
- I passionately hate the teenage taggers that bedevil my neighborhood.
- Madonna is fifty.
- Almost everyone around me has or is currently cultivating children.
- It’s getting awfully hard to have five drinks and stay out til 2a.m. on school nights.
- I actually remember to send thank-you cards.
You? Getting old, too? Or am I alone in this?

Wonderful games with Caslon
People born in 1990 are starting college.
as one of those “currently has” there is nothing more old-making than offsring. word.
also, said offspring thinks you have the coolest life. ever. your many pets may have something to do with this feeling, but she also likes mr. pencil a good deal. like THAT. which also makes me feel old.
I spent the week in a F2F where planning ruled the day and partying ruled the night. Our first night of partying, left many of us slow and low on Tuesday morning. Therefore, I can relate to your drinking on a school night comment.
P.S. Pitbulls scare the b-jesus out of me too. Bad dog owner, bad.
I’ve felt old on many occasions recently. Probably most so when at my school’s prom last year, “livin on a prayer” came on, and another teacher pointed out that most the people in the room weren’t born when that song came out.
