Whippersnappers
Author: Stacy25 Oct
Sheri posted about how her son refers to the 80’s as “the olden days”…and it reminded me of something that happened when CU and I went shopping this past weekend.
We were at the Lucky Brand Jeans store…and the two salesgirls were talking about music…and then I heard the words “Prince” and “oldies”…and then realized they were talking about Purple Rain.
I so badly wanted to ask them if Lucky made jeans for women whose hips have filled out, because in about five years the freaks of nature who call themselves teenage girls will see their metabolism slow down and then…ah, screw it.
To quote another golden oldie…“How Did I Get Here”?

I think part of the reason why I don’t feel “old” is because I’ve always had this metabolism and body type:) But it does seem strange to have our era referred to as the olden days. That realization came to me when I saw our outfits from the early 80s already recycled in Old Navy. I’m waiting for those silky Dove shorts to make a comeback.
Oh good God…you had to bring up the dove shorts.
I saw leg warmers on sale in the paper a couple of days ago and waved the paper in front of CU saying, “THIS IS, LIKE, 900 KINDS OF WRONG.”
Like, ya know.
