You know you are old when you can remember......

"party lines" and you had to wait until your neighbor got finished talking before you could make a call.

having "farrah fawcett" hair.

black and white pictures from your camera and not on purpose.

Cracker Jacks were about the only snack around and the prize inside was almost as fun as Chirstmas.

Nurses wore starched white with those hats...blah.

WILDCAT 02-26-2011 09:12 PM

Seriously...
 
... I have NEVER worried about the weather and driving around here my whole life - until the last two or so years.

But, then... I did end up front bumper down in a deep concrete culvert four years back (on a weather night JUST like this), and HURT LIKE HELL for ten months [afterwards] from the injuries, and got into a LOT of trouble for that "accident". (Thank goodness no one else was involved!!) :vigil: :praying:
__

OTHERWISE, point IS.............. I sure was GLAD to get home tonight. And NOW, am relieved that I will be a "shut in" AGAIN for another week!

WHEW!

:canadian:

i had to get up to turn the channel
going to height ashberry to "look" at the hippys

pagers were the thing
only the very wealthy had wirless phones
and you really know it when you spend all day planning new years eve then your home in bed by 830 pm an miss the whole thing

Blade 02-27-2011 10:52 AM

ya know when you are getting older when you call your children by someone else in the families name by mistake...or like my Grandma did she had 3 kids and 6 grands and we'd go running thru and she'd go thru the list and finally ask whoever was standing there what's his/her name?

rlin 02-27-2011 04:02 PM

when ya used to take drugs to make the world look strange... now ya take em to make the world appear normal...

princessbelle 02-27-2011 06:00 PM

You know you are getting older when..........

the young kids that were friends of your own kids and who called you "mom" when they were growing up....

are now married and have kids of their own.

Jesse 02-27-2011 06:00 PM

I remember my 9th grade English teacher, Mrs. Sweet (she was not sweet) had an old manual typewriter on her desk that she would type letters on while we were taking tests! She drove me nuts with that thing. Bet none of the teachers nowadays have one on their desks. lol

princessbelle 02-27-2011 06:00 PM

......when you go to a wedding and you are no longer a bridesmaid but the "mother of the groom".

Invictus 02-27-2011 06:20 PM

... when the movies shown on TV's Classic Movie channel are the movies you saw in the theater....

princessbelle 02-27-2011 07:13 PM

When you start to notice the child actors you grew up with....are looking sorta old now.
