I got a MMR booster before I went to college because who the fuck knows where to find childhood immunization records. That was 20 years ago. Should I get another?

They are extremely long lasting, and an additional booster is probably unnecessary. If you’re concerned, you can ask your doc to run a titer to check your levels of immunity. I did this last year prior to getting a Hep A booster.
It certainly doesn't hurt. I had to get titer tests for each of my nursing jobs and if it wasn't within a certain range of protection, I had to get another booster. I imagine most people's ranges are low since your case is similar to most people's experience.
