Just as an fyi, the words you are looking for are ages/eons/an eternity.

If we are having this meta-discussion, you can usually guess a person's age by which letter they are elongating. Millenial generation uses the vowel (as above) but gen alpha elongates the syllable - "longggg". Doesn't add anything to the convo just an interesting tidbit.
