For me it is trippy to know that all the little kids I looked after when I was 20 are now 20 themselves.

Yeah, kids that I taught in kindergarten have now graduated. It's definitely strange.

I did my first babysitting gigs at age 13, in 2002.

I vividly remember playing dolls with my neighbor’s daughter. She just had her first baby about a month ago.

Sometimes I forget how old I am. Then I do something like “going too long without eating,” or “sleeping on the same side for too long” and it’s like my body full-on revolts against me. Sigh.

I feel you. I'm born in '87, but I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.

That is such a perfect metaphor, I may have to steal it.

Ha, guess you're not a LotR fan then. It's one of the phrases from the book that folks quote often, I think mainly tongue in cheek, because it's phrased a little funny. But it definitely carries meaning for sure.
