I miss the Good Ole Days! Read and Remember friends
I miss the good ole days
Before the MySpace frenzy.
Before the internet & text messaging.
Before Sidekicks & iPods.
Before PlayStation2 or X-BOX.
Before the 5 hours of homework you put off every night.
When the funnest days were spent playing in the drain pipe in the mud
WHEN LIGHT UP SNEAKERS WERE KOOL
When you rented VHS tapes, not DVDs.
When gas was $0.95 a gallon & Caller ID was a new thing.
When all you can remember wanting was a pager.
When the internet was mind boggeling
When we recorded stuff on VCRs & paid $3.50 for a movie.
When we called the radio station to request songs to hear off our walkmans.
When 2Pac and Biggie where alive.
When the Chicago Bulls were the best team ever.
Way back.....
Tag.
Hide-n-Go Seek at dusk.
Red Light, Green Light.
Heads Up 7 Up.
Playing kickball & dodgeball until your porch light came on.
Slip-n-Slides.
Tree Houses.
Reading R.L. Stine's Goose Bumps.
The annoying Nano Pets & Furbies...and Digimon
Running through the sprinklers.
Selling Lemonade for 25cents
Happy Meals with hot wheel cars
Getting the privelage to sit in the front seat of the car.
But wait....
Watching Saturday Morning Cartoons in your PJ's still wrapped up in your G.I. JOE comforter.
Hey Arnold, Doug, Rugrats.
The original Power Rangers
Or what about....
The Secret Life of Alex Mac.
Ren & Stimpy.
Double Dare.
Rocko's Modern Life.
AAAHH!! REAL MONSTERS.
Wild & Crazy Kids.
Salute Your Shorts.
Are You Afraid of the Dark?
Pete and Pete.
Hey Dude.
Pinky and the Brain.
Bill-Nye the Science Guy.
Who could forget Snick? & Nick @ Nite.
Where everyone wanted to be in love after watching The Wonder Years.
Duck tales!
Kool-Aid was the drink of choice.
Class field trips.
When Christmas was the most exciting time of year.
When $5 seemed like a million, & another dollar a miracle.
When you begged to go to McDonalds for dinner everyday.
When Toys 'R' Us overuled the mall.
Go back to the time when.....
Decisions were made by going 'eeny-meeny-miney-moe'.
Mistakes were corrected by simply exclaiming 'do over!'
'Race issue' ment arguing about who ran the fastest.
Money issues were handled by whoever was banker in 'Monopoly'.
It wasn't odd to have two or three 'best' friends.
Being old referred to anyone over 20.
A chance to skate as a couple at the local roller rink was like winning the lottery.
Scrapes & bruises were kissed & made better.
It was a big deal to finally be tall enough to ride the 'big people' rides at the fair.
When playing Nintendo was the hardest thing ever.
When Ninja Turtles ruled the world.
When a candy bar at the grocery store was the highlight of your day.
When coupons collected all year could get you a prize in your class auction.
When the only thing you cried over was your mom being late to pick you up.
When stress was addition and subtraction.
When friendships were as complicated as who's house to sleep over.
When shaving cream was just meant for play.
When a first kiss only lead to cooties.
When Valentines Day meant cards for all.
When birthdays were a class event.
When a friend moving away was the saddest day of your life.
Who would have thought you'd miss the 80's and 90's so much
