Ive just realize that its a little weird that I think bubble tea is effing disgusting, but I thought orbitz was amazing. It seems like a pretty similar drink to me now that I think of it.

[QUOTE]It makes you feel even older when you never had any interest in some of this stuff because you were already too old for it and have been complaining about the graduating classes since 2000 (the 1st kids I babysat).

Ha sorry Girlie :) that's like when I overheard this 22 year old saying "OMG 22? I'm so OLD!" Really?? So I try not to complain about my age too much because I have older friends and I don't want to make them feel even older. :) And I don't want to sound as stupid as I thought that 22 year old sounded. (No offense to anyone 22 and under, I'm just saying you're NOT old.)

Oh Zima. My brother and I were going to throw a '90s theme party and I desperately wanted to get Zima. Except it's only sold in Japan now. So we cancelled the party because nothing '90s related is complete without Zima.

Cool story bro.

<div>Oh cool.  I got into SL&H sciences in undergrad because I wanted to understand my own hearing loss better, and I thought that the field needed people who had personal experience with it.  I loved the audiology/hearing part, but I haaaaaaated the speech classes. Which was most of them, haha. I wound up deciding to go to grad school for my MSW rather than AuD though. </div>

I had no idea Zima wasn't available anymore.  These guys do have a whoppin 848 of their 1,000,000 desired signature on their petition to get it back though.

Well I'm sure Dot and Les can agree with me when all we need to feel old is look at our 20something kids!

Surge was nasty, and an old friend of mine loved Zima.

Nebb, I remember Orbitz.  I loved that stuff.  And I hate bubble tea too, while we're on that subject.

Last month my BFF"s baby sister had a baby.  She's 19 and I remember her being born.  That made me feel old.

ONEMORETHING.  When you "clean" your ears with Qtips, you are actually pushing more of the wax further back in than you are getting out.   

Here is a guideline for how to safely clean your ears:

They still sold bawls in Toronto as of 4 years ago. Pretty sure they still do. And I hate q tips. Of course, I get to see an ENT fairly regularly, and they'll usually clean them out for me. Which is totally gross, but better than q tips.
