You know you're getting old when...

So my roommates and I groveled a bit and managed to talk the owner of our apartment into a new refrigerator and stove. Which arrived tonight. Squee! Amaree and I stood around watching the two men install it like a pair of kids watching Santa unload his sack. We were thrilled at the crisp whiteness of a brand spankin' new set of appliances, slightly disappointed at the fact our new 'fridge has no ice-cube maker, and positively squealing about the clean oven window with--WITH!--an actual light. Thank heavens for benevolent landlords. I don't even want to cook on the new stove, it's so shiny.

Now. If we could just figure out a time to get this carpet replaced...

You know you're getting spoiled when...

you are disappointed that your refrigerator doesn't have a built in ice maker.

What ever happened to the old fashion ice cube tray?
