    Everytime I am in an office supplies store and I see all of those bookbags.

    Everytime I see a nice, stainless steel drinking fountain (just like the ones in KHs)

    Everytime I hear someone mention the years of 1914, 1925, 1935, 1975, or 1994

    Everytime I hear someone mention Prozac

    When I was married and knew I was in trouble for something. I always wanted for the elders to show up. Even though, of course, I knew it was silly. It was a feeling I got for a minute. I know this sounds really stupid!

    Yep, the gum thing, too.

    And yep, nylons and dresses. I bet in many,many years I've only worn a couple dresses!

    Skirts! Especially ankle length skirts!

    Men in suits - I immeadiately doubt their sanity.

    Men carry briefcases.

    Very large squarish handbags.

    People strolling casually and with no purpose down the road carrying a handbag/briefcase.

    Air freshener sprays.

    The EEEVILS of Christmas and Birthdays.

    I was 40 on Friday and this coming Saturday i'm having one helluva 'knees-up'.

    I don't feel evil or anything but i must admit to feeling a tad weird about it all.

    Peace

    side walks, chapstick, buldging book bags carried at waist height (mailman), any pair of people walking together on the sidewalk wearing good clothing. baseball stadiums, microphones, suits, winter driving in cities, old men wearing old hats and polyester pants, mens dress shoes, old smelly apartment buildings, anyone knocking at the door (even the pizza guy), gravel driveways of old country houses with big mean dogs that are unleashed, the smell of someones house from outside their door step, rich houses with blacktop paved driveways, minivans, being in the back seat of a car...

    Whenever I see a window cleaner on our street.

    Whenever I look in the wardrobe and see Trevs ties, which he rarely wears now thank goodness

    Whenever I see someone carrying a briefcase.
