Geriatric

I'm sure everyone has things that make one feel old.
  • I see tweens wearing '80s inspired clothing, and I realize they've never seen the 80s.
  • My niece is old enough to start 4-H and sell geraniums.
  • Alanis Morissette is identified as a 90s artist instead of the musical genius she is, and I realize that this is how my mom feels about artists from the 60s.
  • My friend's son becomes a teenager.
  • Reaching the age at which I need to start taking calcium supplements because my body is unable to stockpile it
  • Taylor Swift--anything at all about Taylor Swift

Sunday afternoon, I willingly did something else that made me feel old.

I bought a pill case. I take a lot of vitamins in the morning, and it seems stupid to open every bottle every morning. I'm a lot more likely to actually take everything if I have it in one place. Pill cases also appeal to my Type A-ness. I love me some organization.

But I still feel old.

  1. Again! I am laughing--see, you are helping a "geriatric" feel less so by making her laugh all the time! Uh, your mom and I must be the same age given our 60s music love-- which totally makes me want to cry--not the music, the other part about our age!
