where's my flying car?


I am sitting here watching the Transformers cartoon!! It must have been one from my oldest, because it has all old 80's music and the animation is pretty dated. It is still keeping the kido's occupied though. But my squirrelly brain got to wondering where is my flying car and rocket boosted skateboard? This movie was about the far out future of 2005! I think I got jipped.

I remember watching the Jetson's and thinking..wouldn't that be cool!!! Well some of it has happened but, I really could use a Rosie and a microwave that spits out a ready cooked meal. And still there is no flying car!

I remember when I was a kid thinking how old I would be in the 2000's. Even older than my parents were then which was already pretty old. And now I think I am still pretty young here in my 40's. Although my children recently looked amazed that I was younger (only by a year) than a dear friend who just celebrated her birthday. "YOU are younger than her!!" as if only Methuselah should be older than me. And I would be angry if she didn't look so amazing! My oldest says it is because she always has a mischievous smile on. Oh, well guess I better slap on another layer of night cream while I wait for my flying car.

  2. Your kids are a hoot! Yes, your friend does have a lovely smile - mischievous is a good descriptor!

    I think people who dress as Jedi look younger, too... ;o)

    You look lovely, by the way - that cream is sorta tempting. :o)
