You know your getting old when...........

Johnboy60 · Sep 5, 2006

1. Getting discounts at local resturants because you look more like a senior. I don't say anything about age they tell me I look like a senior.

2. No more checking your ID at the local store when comes to buying beer.

3. Funeral homes send you mail about funeral plans.

Ouch! That did not sound too uplifting ... well, I ain't old yet, I ain't old yet, I ain't old yet, I ain't old yet,
I ain't old yet, I ain't old yet, I ain't old yet, I ain't.....

You know you're getting old when....

You can remember when playgrounds had monkey bars and little merry-go-rounds.

You drove a Pinto in High School.

You know what a church key is.

You realize you've never ridden in a car seat.

Your favorite video game is Zork.

You know you're getting old when:

Going to the bookstore on a Friday evening sounds like a fun night out on the town.
You can't read anything without holding it at arm's length.
You remember wearing striped white gym socks up to your knee.
You're old enough to have a kid in college.
You swear you'll never live on the 3rd floor again because the stairs kill your knees.
You remember when the Brady Bunch wasn't re-runs.
You remember when it took a long time to get to Grandma's house because the interstates weren't completed.
The tallest rollercoaster was only 100 feet high, and you thought even THAT was scary!
Prune juice actually starts sounding good.
You remember driving a '73 Cutlass to high school, and it wasn't even 10 years old yet.

You know what's weird, is that I only started noticing it once I turned 40.

I actually think that everything that has been printed since I turned 40 is much smaller. They are using much smaller font. That's it, that sounds resonable, right?

You can fill out every form BC/Blue Shield has without instructions.

Your daily meds pill box does not read Mon-Fri, but Morning-Noon and Night.

I can't remember what this thread is about.

I must be getting old or something.

YKYGO When......

Doing an All-nighter requires a nap the next day, and two All-nighters in a row could leave you hospitalized with sleep deprivation syndrom symptoms (hallucinations anyone?).

(My hubbies and my 10th anniversary proved the 1st statement true, and we firmly believe we would have proven the 2nd statement true too, if not for the poolside nappy in the afternoon. And yes, we stayed out all night in a town that never sleeps.)

You know you're old when: you're singing along with a brand new (remake) song and the kids wonder how you learned it so fast. (Sittin on the Dock of the Bay)

Re. Cce's "Sittin' on the Dock of the Bay"....

Oh, I've so been there, done that, just this week! Truthfully, I hope the remakes keep coming, it makes me look smart and cool until I fess up that it's a remake.
