Truly Outrageous

Today I got a jury summons in the mail. One more clue that I just might be an adult now.

Last week I had an entire conversation with my ex-boss about health insurance and 401k’s. Again, such a grownup.

All this has provoked nostalgia for childhood memories. Okay, not so much memories as television shows and their accompanying toys. Case in point: Jem and the Holograms just came out on DVD. Not only did I email my sister the news (she already knew, ‘cause she’s truly outrageous), but I seriously considered adding Jem to my Netflix queue.

All this begs the question: is there a Jem-sized hole in my life? The answer is no. It’s more of a She-Ra shaped hole. Perhaps He-Man could fit too. They just haven’t come out on DVD yet.
