Old
It doesn’t bother me that I’m older, but it’s still really weird to realize that there are kids entering elementary school whose parents grew up in the same era as I did. For these kids, Transformers and G.I. Joe seem as distant as Hoody Doody and Kukla, Fran and Ollie are to me.

I learned a couple weeks ago that my supervisor, who has two young kids, is a year and a half younger than me. So, we’re kind of peers, but not really.

That’s one of the things that I never expected, although I should have expected, about being in my late 20s. For a good 20-25 years, everyone I knew who was born around the same time as me was in a similar place in life.
Now, suddenly, it’s as if your birth year doesn’t determine your entire station in life ;-)
