Wow...how to make yourself feel old!
A little story...
I'm flipping through some websites looking up some comic book stuff when I see a name a recognize. A guy called C.B. Cebulski - who is listed as a writer and editor for Marvel Comics. I think to myself, how many people can possibly have that name? That *has* to be the guy I went to school with. So I end up doing a search and quickly find a blog of his (and a myspace page that I can't open at work) and one short click in the bio section and I see a list of people that have friended him that I also recognize from my school days. Yeah, so if I had any doubt about this not be the same guy I knew that certainly cleared it up.
Now, I say "knew" as in we went to school together starting I think from the third grade on up. But did I ever have any meaningful or even memorable conversation with him in those years - nope. But still, hey someone I knew and someone who I thought was kinda cute back in the day.
Let's also point out that I didn't have a lot friends at school growing. Couple of close ones here and there, coming and going over the years and certainly no boys that I was friends with. I was a bit shy around the boys and guys being guys at that age , well they were stupid.
So I try to find a picture of ol' C.B. and holy crap I wouldn't have recognized him if I ran into him. Literally. I barely recognized any of the people I went to school with in any of the other blogs I found linked off his. Names - yes. Faces - no.
When did everyone get so old!?!?
And of course more importantly.... am I that old!?!??!
Holy crud!!
Like I needed that bit of reality slammed into my life right now!
Geez!
*whiny*
No wonder I live in the State of Denial, deep in Immaturity City!
