faitharmitageI am currently eavesdropping on a conversation between two people I know. The gist can be summarized in, "Nothing is as good as it used to be!" Specifically, it's about media like TV and movies. I am trying so hard not to side-eye one member of the conversation, because her history of consumption is t-r-a-g-i-c. The way she's describing characters in current shows is pretty much how characters in her favorite shows behaved, but I guess it's different somehow? Who knows.
I'm making a mental note to not be the kind of adult who is basically complaining about things because I'm older and the majority of entertainment is no longer targeted at me. I think that's what ages people more than anything: the cynicism, the unwillingness to change and adapt. I won't let that happen to me.
There's an upcoming meetup for people interested in joining the local roller derby league. I'm going to go. Hey, my knees are finally starting to heal up. That means it's time to bust something again, right? Right!
On that note, I'm off to the track - running, not racing.
