Talk about OLD

I sold a computer desk on Craigslist. They came over today. She brought 2 friends to help her load it into the truck. They were probably college students. I am thinking 20-22 years old. They had to wrap it in plastic because it was raining. I left them alone in the room when they did that. I heard some giggles and slowly sauntered by the room. They were in my eBay holding room, where all the boxes were. When I walked by, the guy was holding up a Boy George book. It was in the "maybe to sell" pile.

I AM 32. Boy George was popular when I was 11. I loved him like these people loved N*Sync. We also pulled out my Duran Duran, Thompson Twins, Cyndi Lauper, INXS, and Whitesnake posters. I got a good giggle and they were like kids in a thrift store. Everything is more of a novelty than anything.

It still made me feel old.
