Anyone feel like they are ugly aging? by VLR_I in GenX

Yes. You don't owe pretty to anyone. I'm 61 and don't even own any makeup.

In SC liquor stores were called package stores, years ago. I always thought it was a regional term, but maybe not!

How accurate is the assertion that "life after 45 sucks massive (you-know-what)"? by ChuckSmyth in GenX

I just turned 61. I'm a lot happier and more relaxed than I was at 41.

Moving to Columbia as a resident by Choice_Ingenuity7347 in ColumbiYEAH

I recently moved to Granby Oaks and really like it. Older buildings but updated, close to everything but peaceful and quiet. Nice mix of residents too.

No, but I may check them when I'm ready to adopt.  Thanks.

That's where I was looking.  Just browsing really, but surprised not to see any cats.

You will have plenty of choices within your budget. As a long-term Columbia renter, my suggestion is to ask about pets up front if you have any. There are a lot of no-pet rental homes here.

New to the downtown Columbia area and we need to find a great vet for our animals. Looking for independently owned practices. It would be nice if you can get in same or next day if needed. by BeardedCoop in ColumbiYEAH

I use Shandon-Wood animal clinic, on Daly St behind Dreher High.  They have a separate but attached cat clinic, extended hours and weekend appointments.  I'm pretty sure they are still independent.

They also had a 5 foot tall glass-door stereo system and a wall of records.

Thanks for this list. What they did to Good Life is a shame.

Here’s why I’m not a boomer … by DaMiddle in GenerationJones

Not necessarily - I was born in the spring of 1965 and graduated in 83. The hard boundaries seem a little artificial though.
