This is something I'm just sort of getting used to: the idea that I'm going to live long enough to replace shit on a relatively regular basis that I feel like ought to be "long-lasting." It is long-lasting; I'm just longer-lasting. Stupid stuff like, "What do you mean we have to replace the sheets again, didn't we just buy new ones, like... ten years ago?" There's a complete-turnover factor for all products that I haven't gotten used to yet.

I know what you mean, I just installed that boiler... 20 years ago. I just bought groceries... 10 days ago. I just bought that truck... 10 years ago. Christmas and birthdays used to be a year apart, too.
