1996 was like, yesterday!
yesterday I was looking at furniture with my 8 year old.
It was a retro kitchen set. He said to me, 'I don't really like it. What do you think?'
I replied, 'I dunno, the chairs are kind of groovy' ( a word I picked only because it was 60's style furniture, by the way!)
His response: 'Mom. Please don't EVER use that word again. This isn't 1996!'
*sigh* I'm going to jump off a bridge!
Actually, if I was THIS GUY i'd want to jump off a bridge. This had to be the most embarrassing day of his life!

Age is all imagination. Ignore years and they'll ignore you. -Ella Wheeler-Wilcox
Ignore years and they'll ignore you. Until you can't eat solid food and member of the opposite sex look at you in disgust. When that happens, ignore solid food and members of the opposite sex, and they'll ignore you. Timeless words of wisdom.
(Yeah, I've never heard of Ella Wheeler-Wilcox either.)
