Remember When the Northern State Only Had Two Lanes?

One of the ways I pass the time when I can't sleep is to try to remember how to get places in Florida and New York. Today the issue of the Northern State Parkway came up, and I drew a blank at what exit I lived at in the olden days.

Despite the fact that I now live in San Francisco, after having spent four years in Florida, I still consider myself to be a New Yorker. Which is why it unsettled me to not remember my exit. I decided to see if working up to it would help. What exit was I off the LIE? Okay, got that.

What's my gut instinct answer for the Northern State? Exit ... Shit. WHERE AM I FROM? And can I still claim to be from there if I can't remember my way around?

More importantly, I'm 31 and already suffering from dementia, apparently. What do you think of this idea: if you suffer from an "old people disease" you qualify for Social Security? Ehh?
