Autumn

 

Recently I've been seen a lot of memes on social media along the lines of "how was this 30 years ago already?!" I really can relate. In my mind, I was at uni max. 20 years ago when, cough, it was more like 30 years ago. The 1990s don't seem that long ago, when in reality someone born the year I graduated from university might be in a managerial position and could be maried with children and my smartass boss. Mind. Blown. Even worse, I still tend to think that "middle aged" refers to people perhaps slightly younger than my parents, when in fact, it is people like ME and actually this is even a rather generous label as the average life expectancy in Central Europe is not quite a hundred years, so yeah.

Just based on naked facts, you could say I'm in the autumn of my life, whether I like it or not. When did this happen?!
