Blasts from the past

I just saw my ex-boyfriend on TV. He's a musician and fronting a big campaign for an insurance company. He was my first boyfriend. We went out when I was 16. That's 17 years ago! How can I be old enough to have a boyfriend from 17 years ago??? And more importantly: how come, 17 years on, I'm still dating???

A couple of days ago I was carelessly traipsing down the memory lane with a colleague until I heard myself casually start a sentence with the words "Oh, I remember this thing 20 years ago"... 20 YEARS? That's 2 decades! That's an entire Miley Cyrus! Christ. I'm old enough to be a mother to someone who's getting married.


No wonder my e-mail is being flooded by Viagra adverts. I'm old.

  1. What worries me more, is that people who were born the year I started school are now in their 20s...
