I remember when....

No offense to my parents but I can remember a time when I thought my parents were old when they were 30. Then of course, as I got older, I realized that 30 wasn't old at all. I'm thinking Jennah has the same thoughts I did when I was her age. The scene is this: We were watching a tv show about music and we were singing to Michael Jackson's "We are the World" song - here is our conversation:

Jennah: "Mom, you actually know all the words to that song?"
Me: "Yes."
Jennah: "Wow." "So you mean you were actually ALIVE back then." "Like when Michael Jackson sang it?"
Me: "Yes Jennah, it wasn't that long ago."
Jennah: "Well, I guess you are as old as I thought."

Yeah, now you see why I am like I am!
