I'm finally old.
« on: November 04, 2013, 05:46:25 AM »
I can't keep up with the latest pop culture. I can hardly find any new music I like. I'm grumpy all the time. I don't know what's trending on the internet. I can't figure out social media. I get heartburn from eating pizza.

Maybe Vesta and I can reminisce on our lives together and drink prune juice.

I was in my 30's when I discovered I was old. Kids were wearing Mohawks then. and This teeny bopper had a sideways mohawk.... I remember thinking, "We didn't dress like that when I was in school!"

It took me a moment to realize, I've become my Dad! I'm Old!

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

Mr. Carrots, I too am getting older then I thought when I cannot for the life of me remember having a life with you at any time.  Perhaps with your grandfather but at my age to even think of such a thing would put me in jail.    Make mine a prune juice and Vodka please.

From the time I was young I’ve liked music from the 50s and 60s. Elvis. Buddy Holly. Chuck Berry. The Supremes. The Shirelles. The Temptations. The list could go on for days. Up until my late 20s any radio I owned always had a station programed into one of the buttons so I could listen to that music.

A few months back I was riding alone by myself and grew nostalgic so I started searching the radio for an Oldies station. I thought I had discovered one when I found “Stop in the Name of Love” by the Supremes. As soon as that song was over they began playing a song that came out AFTER I became an adult, and I knew I had been mistaken about it being an Oldies station. I didn't change the station because I actually liked the song. Then, when the song was over, the DJ came on and said something that broke my heart...he called the song an Oldie.

It couldn't be true. It couldn't be an Oldie, but apparently it was. Then I began to wonder if music released after I became an adult is considered Oldies, what did that make me?
