Generation X Reboot: We’re Back and More X-citing Than Ever!

I don’t know where I’m going
But I sure know where I’ve been
Hanging on the promises in songs of yesterday
And I’ve made up my mind
I ain’t wasting no more time
Here I go again, here I go again
Though I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what I’m looking for
Oh, Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on

‘Cause I know what it means
To walk along the lonely street of dreams

~ “Here I Go Again”, White Snake (1982)

Hey there, Gen Xers and fans of all things rad! It’s been a while since we last caught up, but like a classic mixtape found in the attic, we’re ready to bring back the good vibes and unforgettable memories of the best generation ever — Generation X! Dust off those Doc Martens and grab your favorite flannel because we’re diving back into the era that gave us the coolest music, the best TV shows, and enough nostalgic moments to fill a Trapper Keeper.

Remember when we used to rewind our favorite VHS tapes and wait for our dial-up internet to connect? Those were the days! We’re here to remind you of why Generation X rocks the hardest. From dissecting the evolution of technology that took us from rotary phones to the dawn of the internet, to reminiscing about the golden age of MTV when music videos were our lifeline, we’re ready to relive every epic moment with you.

Speaking of MTV, do you recall the excitement of watching the latest music videos and practicing the moonwalk in front of your mirror? Well, buckle up, because we’re bringing back the buzz with hilarious throwbacks, deep dives into our favorite TV shows, and of course, those mixtapes that were the soundtrack of our youth. Spoiler alert: we’re still not over how awesome “Video Killed the Radio Star” by The Buggles was, which of course was the first video that debuted on MTV at midnight on August 1, 1981.

But it’s not all about the past. We’re here to navigate the present too. As the sandwich generation, we know all about juggling responsibilities, dealing with midlife crises (or awakenings, as we like to call them), and planning for retirement. We’ll tackle these serious topics with a dash of humor and a lot of heart, helping you find the balance between caring for your kids, your parents, and yourself.

So, grab your favorite snack (Fruit Roll-Ups or Jello Pudding Pops, anyone?), kick back, and get ready to laugh, cry, and nod along in agreement as we celebrate everything that makes Generation X legendary. We’re back, baby, and we’ve got so much more to share!

We want to hear from you! Share your favorite Gen X memories, your funniest parenting stories, or how you’re rocking midlife. Join the conversation and let’s keep the spirit of Generation X alive and kicking! Don’t forget to subscribe to our blog to make sure that you get all the new blogs as they are released!
