I'm so old I Remember when:

[Evadig]

I loved these in college. I still carry one in my purse.

I still have a few.

When I was in college and still doing elementary ed. classes, I had to work with some second graders. One in particular was a quiet kid who didn’t have the greatest home life. I gave him one of these to keep and you should have seen him light up. It was as if, like the picture said, he’d won the lottery. I hope he’s doing well, wherever he is.

I know CDs aren't that old, but...

I was talking with a cousin some time ago. I told her about my CDs and how I've got them digitized, bla bla bla. I have a whole double-stacked shelf of them.

She suggested throwing them away because I've already got a backup of them.

I've never heard of such a concept. I'm keeping the discs in case I'm stuck with a CD player for whatever reason.

Look up storage recommendations for CDs.

They still sell new record players.

I know, a few times I've decided to buy a new record player for my 45's and 33's. Then I think of the $100+ price tag and decide against it.

It will give you far more than $100 worth of pleasure over the years and the price will only go up. Gift it to yourself, you're worth it. Consider it self-care.

I remember the red cups at pizza hut.

and the taste of the wooden spoons with the ice cream they gave out in elementary parties. the taste of the wood was always more memorable than the ice cream itself.

I have eaten at an eat-in Pizza Hut once years ago.
