Does anyone remember that there was a time when movies came out on tape before DVD? And there was a time when DVDs—and Blu-Rays, which I'm not sure I'm spelling right—weren't even invented? And you could buy a car that would play cassette tapes instead of CDs? God, I feel so old. I'm not old enough to remember vinyl records or silent movies, but I still feel really, really old.
I went to the optometrist today and they put on The Little Mermaid II in the waiting room for these little girls, and it was on video tape. When the lady was putting it in the machine, I thought, "Whoa, weird." Then I remembered, "Oh yeah…I was part of the generation that watched movies on tape, even if I was on the tail end."
In addition to feeling old, I'm also feeling loopy from having my eyes dilated and staring at the screen is giving me a headache, so now I'm going to go lie down for a while.
