Feeling very old.

I gave one of my daughter’s kindergarten friends a ride home today. Currently, I’m driving my FIL’s Corolla — he’s out of state for a while, so I’ve been switching between cars so that neither one is sitting for weeks on end — which doesn’t have any of the extras. Even the extras that aren’t really extras anymore.

So, when I opened the door to let her out of the back seat, she points at the door and says, “What’s that?” For a second, I have no idea what she’s talking about — then I realize it’s the lever that rolls the window down.

So I told her, suddenly feeling like a Luddite. But her response was “Oh, cool! Can I try it?”

So she had a fantastic time rolling the window up and down, up and down — and I was standing there, thinking how I did that the first time my mom got a car with power windows.
