i had a couple reminders this weekend...

+ instead of feeling yucky for 2-3 hours the morning after staying out late and drinking beer, you actually feel yucky for next 2-3 days.

+ when asked by a fellow bike shop employee if you've worked at any other shops, and you say 'yea, about 15 years ago' they reply 'oh....i was 5 then.'

First, when your high school hires a head basketball coach who graduated after you did.

Next, when your college hires a head basketball coach who graduated after you did...

I went to see an R rated movie last night and got carded! But my boyfriend didn't! The girl tore his stub, he went first, then she asked me for ID - of course I was flattered (I am 28 - do I seriously look 17???).

My boyfriend was pissed, and immediately started complaining about his gray hairs that apparently make him look much older than 28. Hee hee.

When the "how old are you quiz" adds 10 years to your life. I am the definition of uncool.

As my mom always tells my aunt, "No matter how old you get... you'll still be older than me!"  :P

When your kids do something wrong and you say something your parents said to you.  I hate that.

When your doctors are younger than you

When you see teenaged drivers and think they couldn't possibly be old enough to drive

When the idea of going out at 9:30 vs. going to bed at 9:30 is unimaginable

I've said this before...but, you know your getting old, when the number of trips to the urinal out numbers the bottles of beer. 

When the Dr. wants to start seeing you on a monthly basis.

The gray in your facial hair, has won the election and taken over as the majority.

  • I know that I am old when I look in the mirror and see my dad!?!
  • I know that I am really old when I hear the songs of my youth being played by an orchestra on the Classical station.
  • I know that I am old because my birth certificate says so ... :0

what's "old?"

 

at this point in time, I'm not sure where to begin...mind-wise, feel as young as ever; bod-wise, not as...but I'm sure having a blast being "old."

OK since Max won't tell you I guess I have to. You know your old when you get up off the can and have to dry your sack.

When you have to explain to your friends' kids that "aerial" is not a character from the Littlest Mermaid, but how we used to get a t.v. signal before the (cable) wire came in through the wall.  My husband still laughs about this story.  What's sad is that we used a large outside antenna to get our t.v. signal until only 2 years ago when we finally got satellite.  Actually still use it for the rare times the satellite goes out.

Middle Age is when you need to trim your nasal hair, Old Age is when you need to trim your ear hair!

I remember when phones wouldn't work without cables and you needed to stick your finger in a hole and turn to dial a number...

I remember when 25 cents could buy you enough candy to make you sick...

I remember when it was safe to go outside and play - with no adult supervision...
