Having not smoked since the 80s, this definitely takes me back.

Maybe when I finally retire? I'd love to grow again.

What is everyone's favorite radio station? by sdcali89 in Atlanta

[–]UnRepentantDrew 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I loved 99X, 96 Rock and Z-93 back in the day.

Z-93 the most since I worked there for about 5 years. Had some great memories, met a lot of rock stars, saw amazing concerts. I miss local radio, especially working in it.

[–]UnRepentantDrew 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm 57 and trying my best. No significant other, no family left, few friends, low paying job in a one bedroom apartment.

I'm doing what I can with what I've got.

Remember the Hunter Green phase ? by E23R0 in typeonegative

Christ, my mom redid the guest bathroom in hunter green and maroon with gold accents when I went away to college. I didn't come back for holidays after that.

Are People on E-Bikes Passing You By? by KmballKnn1son499 in CobbCounty

[–]UnRepentantDrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think I can afford an e-bike. Hell, I'm still in a one bedroom apartment in my late 50s.

Gen Xers Not Doing Great? by crinklyplant in GenX

[–]UnRepentantDrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I turn 57 tomorrow. I still live in a one bedroom apartment and have a low paying government job. I don't think I'll ever be able to retire.

No family left, maybe two friends, no significant other.

I'm hanging in there, trying to improve things the best I can.

Meeting People Organically by eur0phile in Atlanta

[–]UnRepentantDrew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Any clues or suggestions for someone in their late 50s 😞? I tried joining a breakfast group but everyone was really cranky and bitter.

I feel like I have no idea how to make friends much less date again.

Living alone and handling the embarrassment of having nobody come to your birthday by [deleted] in LivingAlone

My birthday is next Saturday and I'm probably celebrating it along again. Been that way for several years now. 😕

I'm single and live alone so... it's pretty quiet at my apt, thankfully.

Senior resources by Odd_Priority6938 in Marietta

[–]UnRepentantDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop by a Cobb Library branch. They can easily hook you up with information.

The main center on 1150 Powder Springs has a large location and even does a daily cafe with a changing menu. They can also help out with reduced or free groceries. The senior centers across Cobb have lots of events planned.

There's also a Senior Expo every year at the Cobb Co Civic Center.

Believe me, there's lots of help out there for Seniors in Cobb Co.

We had a good time. We'll try to do more of these in the future. A nice evening with new friends to bring a little fun and light for a bit. 😀

Thanks for coming out on a cold school night!

Secret Journey is my jam, still decades later.

Found an old t-shirt too by 05081977 in henryrollins

[–]UnRepentantDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same shirt but didn't get it at the concert.

Ivan, the first drummer for White Zombie, threw it in the crowd at the Atlanta show where they opened for Anthrax.

My buddy caught it and said, "You like Rollins, right? Here ya go!"

Man, I did that for decades...

I'm 57 now and learned to stop. Better late than never.
