I’m really frustrated after searching the “vintage” market on eBay. I mean, if an item says:” microwavable” (as in “vintage muffin pans – microwavable”) How friggin “vintage” can it possibly be???Microwave oven’s are NOT that old! {{“They aren’t they aren’t they aren’t!”)} . . . least not when I FEEEEEEEEEL young and I remember when they FIRST came out onto the consumer market; first time ever! (In the 1970’s is when my family first owned one!)
Naturally – I went to the doctor’s, this morning, to check on my hormones (as vintage as I obviously happen to be these days). I have honestly seen the interior phone booth that I used to talk on, as a teenager, inside the Auburn Adventist Academy girl's dormitory (or one that looks exactly like it) ON DISPLAY inside the Maple Valley Museum!
“Vintage,” MY ASS!
If you’ve noticed from my recent blog entries, I have NOT been volunteering at the local history museum for quite a long while. Not only did I quit going down there the first moment I realized my high school year book was considered “historical” but Norm (the president, who I instantly connected with) got brain cancer, and I desperately missed him/felt sorry for him and his young family and otherwise hated going to the haunted museum -- then the charming gal I volunteered for: “Laura” the curator quit!
I’ve seriously been focusing all my extra time volunteering in environmental stuff these past few months. In fact, in the morning, (on Saturday) I’ll be doing plant rescue – re-potting native species instead of digging up land where they’re going to bulldoze (which is what I usually do - work out all that middle-aged aggression from behind a shovel).
Are you relating to what I'm saying here? (In more positive news: all my business ventures are looking super happy: even the psychic work is picking up w/good results). Yayness.
Note: In regards to TODAY's cartoon . . . how flattered would a middle-aged woman be if some gay dude suddenly HIT upon her; is if she could be so gorgeous as to make him want to "TURN!" LOL.
{If my step son and/or nephew who are reading this -- both whom are utterly adored as gay -- no offense by the cartoon. Mmmmmkay?}
