We had an obsession. It was Beverly Hills 90210. When it first aired, they were they same age as we were. Maybe a little younger. We could relate. Same fashion, same boyfriend problems. Definitely a different zip code.Cameron: So, you know I have to give the new 90210 a try right? Kelly, Donna & Brenda are all in it. Guilty pleasure.
Ferris: When is it on?
C: I think it starts in Sept. sometime. I'm sure it will be terrible, but how can I resist one viewing?
F: My cubicle co dweller (WHAT do I call her?) is watching all of the old 90210’s online right now. She’s in the 4th season when Brandon’s girlfriend from Minnesota comes to visit … and THEY DO IT.
C: Watching TV at work? Hmmm. Charlie pointed the new show out to me. Whenever I catch in on, I have to watch and it makes me long for pizza and Cesar salad.
F: ???????? Why?
C: That's what we usually had at Flash’s while watching. Pizza or some sort of pasta and a big salad. Brain cloud.
F: Ahhhh, right. That’s when I told The King that garlic was a sexual stimulant…*giggle* Dumba$$. I was thinking more of watching it at your house, which typically included our two hot dates: Ben & Jerry’s.
C: Ahhh. Such sweet boys. Remember their slutty sister Sara Lee and eating an entire chocolate cake between us. Good times, good times.
F: Yeah…I think that cake is still attached to my rear end.
C: A now for something completely different.
Brad Pitt bugs me.
F: In what way? In what context?
C: When he talks, he uses way too many 10 cent words & I'm sure he doesn't use them in the correct context. He's trying to hard to be super cool. I'm over him. I've moved on. I'm sure he'll miss me.
F: He’ll show up at your door in the pouring rain begging you to come back. I just know it.
C: It won't work. He can just take his pretty face and bad skin elsewhere.
F: A girl’s got to have her standards.
A few days later….
F: So my coworker is obsessed w/90210 & she’s been watching reruns of it here at work.
Just realized that all of that was 20 years ago. This November I will have known Sammy 20 years. Ouch.
C: Pardon me while I pass ou…..(Thud! Sound of head hitting desk)
F: RIGHT???? Where did 20 years go?????????????????????????
C: The mere fact that I have vivid, like it was yesterday, memories of 20 years ago is painful.
F: I seriously felt nauseous when I realized that. Hah! Well, at least we’re not as old as The Mayor (Chas) & The King… Yeah…it still hurts.
C: True. But not as much. They are old. They're in their 40's for crying out loud.
F: Really old. Hips giving out old.
C: Hips, knees, back, eyesight, hearing. It's all down hill from here.

Excuse me almost 40 something person, but the glasses are for work on a computer which you would need too if you did it as much as I do and the gray hair, well, that's just genetic. At least I don't have a big head. Ta-Netics.
