I want to see how it all turns out! My mom is 94 and I'm 61, and we were talking a few weeks about how we were sad we wouldn't be around in 40-50 years to read the history books and see what they get right and what they get wrong.

Information junkies, both of us.

but I'm going to be 69 in ten days and I'm glad I didn't miss the 50s and 60s.

The 70s and 80s I could do without, though.

Just the thought of how it reads puts a smile on my face.
