I missed my 20th because I was pregnant (near the end, so I couldn't fly), and one of my classmates posted that she had to miss because she was on college tours for one of her kids. My mouth dropped; nothing wrong with either approach, but I couldn't fathom having kids that old yet.

Later on, I checked his DL and his DOB is actually two years after mine! 😂

Sometimes it’s not the year, it’s the mileage!!

DH needs a nut bra. The sheer size and weight over the years is causing them to hang low. I like it…

I don't get it. What's so different about the landline? Do you have a rotary phone?

On a landline, you have to listen for the dial tone before you can "dial" a number. Push-button or rotary doesn't matter. With a cell phone you just start typing in the number.

I have never done that. I pick up the phone and start dialing.

Having a urologist.

Walking through the neighborhood I lived in during my 20s and realizing suddenly that the building I lived in, which was pretty new when I lived there, is being gutted and replace.

+1 One of the buildings they tore down in downtown Bethesda for the Purple Line construction was built when I was in high school. That stung. I’m 53.

You are at the end of being young. Get ready. Around my 35th HS reunion is when the first round of bad diagnosis started hitting people.

2 words: chin hairs

I rented a car a few weeks ago when my 2013 was at the shop. Sometimes I wonder if all new cars have no CD player - would miss that.

But here was the shocker: Instead of a stick to shift gears (manual car), it had a ROUND KNOB to turn from park to reverse and so on. When I picked up my 17YO DS in the rental and commented on this, he said, “Oh. My friend has that in her new car.” Totally nonplussed.

Some guy bumped into my car in my apartment complex’s parking lot and I ran inside my house complaining…..”Oh my gawd…..!!…..Some old dude just hit my car!!!!”
