As a Gen-Xer, I am right on the cusp of learning all the cool texting lingo and have been diligently deciphering codes that I pulled off the internet. At this point I am starting to think I am getting a good handle on it, and then out jumps this alarming abbreviation ST&D!!!! So I'm thinking it is some sexual reference like S&M because if you know me, then you know my mind is constantly in the gutter, but I later find out it is "Stop Texting and Drive"!!! OMG!!!! I am so chaining my kids to their bed and hiring a driver to escort them everywhere.
I can just see Sophie sitting in the car with all of her over developed, highly processed, heavily make-uped friends saying "Omg!!! Like, stop texting and drive"; "Did you kiss Carson last night"; "heeehheeehhee"; "Can you believe what Emma did at that party!" Just thinking about it gives me anxiety. Can someone please get me a Xanax STAT!!!!!
Whatever happened to frilly dresses and letting little girls where big bows and having unshaved legs until seventh grade?
Whatever happened to girls not getting their periods until 13 and developing boobs at the same time?
Whatever happened to highschool girls looking 15 instead of 30?
I guess life happened and before I knew it, I was classified old and unhip. I have moved onto the age where I can only imagine life being the way it was when I was a kid and that is something I said I would never do. "No, Chance in Hell will I ever grow an old mindset."
Well there was a Chance and I am living it......and yes, my generation did give America all the best stuff, but give me a break for saying that. I'm OLD.
