My Pubic Hair is Going Grey…..
Yesterday at work, it was a long one, the young lady sat behind me made a noise like an Ewok. I made comment that she had made said noise and was met with a blank stare in as much to say
“What language do you speak?”
I tried to explain what an Ewok was and where they come from and was only met with more blank looks from the other young ladies on the desk behind. They too had no idea what an Ewok was.
It was at that point when my head started to spin as i asked them how old they were and what year they were born. They were all 18 or 19 and none of them born before 1988. It was at that very moment I realised how old i really was and that in no short time I would be checking for grey pubic hairs and wondering why a nice cup of tea sounds like a much preferable idea to a night on the beer with the lads…. (Any of you know me then you know that a night out with the lads is a non-existent thing with me anyway … but you get the idea)
I am 33, 34 in exactly one months time and I think I am going to be needing a share options in Just For Men soon.
( by the way this is an Ewok in case any KIDS out there are wondering what this old fart is on about)
Until Next Time…

Why are they not showing, maybe because my images aren’t working properly in Moz

34?? Pah–that’s easy. Try being on the verge of 36!!
My neph and niece know about Ewoks–but only because my cousins are obsessed with Star Wars.
What scares me is that the young ‘uns barely know what CDs are, let alone vinyl. The minute they hear a song they’re off to download it.
‘A CD player?? What’s that?!?’
Scary, innit??

Just remembered this post and it reminded me of a conversation with my wife recently. We we’re discussing how our kids don’t know what a “cassette” is, and that my daughters favourite game is wandering round with a broken mobile phone, pretending to text her friends!
