Strange happenings, and there IS such a thing as a free lunch
This afternoon, I answered the phone at work, as I'm getting paid to do. I had to take down a message, and as I took down the return phone number, I mentioned, "Oh, I see you're calling out of [insert name of city]." A short conversation ensued, and it turns out that it was someone I'd known (though not well) many years ago. This person's child, whom I remembered as a 3-5 year old, is now turning 13 in April. My G-d, do I feel old...
In other news, I managed to (somewhat) successfully coordinate another office lunch meeting. And this time, I made sure to get leftovers. Yum. :-)

I hear ya, loud and clear. The oldest of my younger cousins turned 10 over R"H, and I'm thinking, "She CANNOT be 10! I remember when she was born!" So yeah. But she is 10, and in 2 years will be Bat Mitzvah-ed, B"H. THEN I'll REALLY feel old. Oy.
On a related note, I was at my Old College Roommate's bridal shower this Sunday. When someone mentioned that OCR is in the fifth year of her graduate program, I nearly had a panic attack... realizing that this meant that ait had been five years since I had graduated college.
Shkoyach on a job well done, and free lunch to boot!
aviva--yeah, same idea. Gosh, but I feel like an old fogey.
cme--mazal tov to your OCR. Don't worry, you're not that old. :P
Well, Enigma, you're in good company. I feel like an old fogey too.
