Age Balance, vol. 2
More signs you're getting old:
More signs you're still on the youngish side of things:- There's this mix CD your old college boyfriend made you during the summer of 2002. First of all, 2002 was seven years ago, holy crap. Second of all, there's this lyric of one song on the mix that goes, "When July is gone/I'll be 24." The song comes on your iPod's "Shuffle Songs" playlist during a long bus ride home from Boston and you remember when 24 seemed really freaking old.
- You just emailed your friend to remind him to send you those recommendations for cordless drills. You're really excited about buying a cordless drill.
- You're about to sign a new lease and, since signing your last lease, the following things have changed:
- You no longer need your parents to be guarantors.
- Your BFF is now an attorney who is qualified to look over your lease for you and give you like, real, live, legal advice.
- You wore sort-of fishnets to work today because you knew they'd put you in a silly mood even though you knew you probably should've stuck with basic black tights instead.
- That BFF who's now an attorney? Yeah, you guys have matching tattoos.
