Robin is so very wise. Turning 50 isn't hitting me as hard as turning 40 did, but my oldest turning 15? This is killing me. When did I get old enough to have a high schooler? That coupled with a new hire here at work that was born in Sept of 1978? OUCH - that's when it starts to get ya.

That's a *great* daily webcomic site, by the way. Someone linked to it on LJ last week, and I spent hours reading it from the beginning.

I ... I put a box on my head just the other day.
What makes it even more ridiculous is I did it because I was cleaning up and abruptly needed both hands, so I freed one up by putting the box on my head, thinking all the while boy, the neighbors probably think I'm a loon.
I don't know where I'm going to be in 5 months, let alone 5 years.
