Slacker

So, Shopgirlove missed a day...get over it! She has a life, and it's been busy.
Shopgirlove has been struggling with identity, lately. Is she or is she not gen X? She doesn't think so, but other people do. This is not as specious as it may seem. My cohorts are small in number, but our impact has been of some consequence. And yet, we are misunderstood. (Or misunderestimated as our fearless leader likes to say.) Dismissed by boomers as slackers, hi, when, exactly are you planning on retiring? And by our juniors as hopelessly out of touch: gee, cell phone, email, blog....myspace why?. We get no respect. Given what we went through, isn't it interesting how influential we've been?
