Well hell that is good to know! :) I was thinking I was going to have to request that the admins change my title from Senior Member to Senior Moment!

I think I need to change my answer and say the forgetfulness thing is pretty predominant on me lately. I didn't get home from my advisor meeting before the mailman delivered so I checked the box on my way to work. There was a little pink slip saying that I had a pkg to pick up at the post office that wouldn't fit into my mailbox. I'm sitting here racking my brain because I couldn't think of what it could be. Then I realize it should be the pkg Rook just sent me. It wouldn't be so bad if not for the fact that Rook just reminded me like yesterday that the pkg should be here today. Sheesh. I really don't know where my thought process gets derailed. It's a mystery akin to the sock/dryer phenomenon. :|

You have a party and the neighbors don't even realize it.



Lillie 04-19-2011 09:06 PM

That the "retirement community" you live near has lowered there 'admitting" age and you are now just a few birthdays away from meeting that new criteria! :blink::eek::eek::blues:

Lillie 04-19-2011 09:11 PM

However the first time I felt old was when I watched Huey Lewis and the news get inducted into the rock n roll hall of fame!..

Strappie 04-19-2011 09:19 PM

Because every year I have a birthday and every year I get older....

Diva 04-19-2011 10:26 PM

When I get older, I'll let all Y'all know.......:eyebat:

songs
 
you know you're getting older when you remember the original bands who sung the songs in commercials...
when you know when the theme songs for some tv shows were first written as protest songs for your generation...
when you knew the Rolling Stones, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, the Who and others when they were young and making your parents howl when played their RECORDS...
when you used 8-tracks...
i could say more, but i forget now ,too!
namaste,

I know I have gotten older when I report that I have just for the 1st time in my life put in a new shower liner and curtain hooks.....

Oh, wait....I should have posted this in the "You know you are Butch and single when" thread.
:sunglass:

tapu 06-16-2011 11:25 AM

I'm a bit confused about it, myself. It seems entirely unfair that I should have a period and a mustache.

I feel your pain. Still shaking my head over matched socks. Where do they find the energy?

Exactly.....I know I am getting older when I just tip the laundry basket full of socks into an opened drawer.....Ok really, I must start that " You know you are Butch and Single when" thread!

Oh! BFD!! I finally sat down last night with my cookies and milk and saw that, over time and between interruptions, I'd poured myself 3 glasses.

lillith 06-16-2011 02:49 PM

OK! This may sound really vain, but I knew I was getting older when the natural color of my bangs has more silver than any other color.

Greco 06-16-2011 04:28 PM

ok, I'll bite
 
Remember the transitor radio?
I slept with mine under my pillow.

the movies with matinees on Saturdays
where you'd see two movies with cartoons
in between

OS Butch 06-24-2011 07:08 AM

Cuz I found a cup of coffee in the microwave....again!

Then i go to get something and dammit, I forget what the heck I was looking for in the first place!

foxyshaman 06-24-2011 08:47 AM

I remember everything I need when I am in the house.... and everything I forgot when I am sitting in my car... <so this is what my 3rd time back in the house>:confused:

Chazz 06-24-2011 08:53 AM

How do you know when you are getting older?

You get mail from AARP.

I agree!!! I don't think I feel my age, I feel like I am in my early 20s. I am fairly certain I don't look my age...

But, y'all can be the judge of that ;)


:sparklyheart:

Angelika 06-24-2011 10:41 AM

How do you know when you are getting older?

When I KNOW I have to wear a bra otherwise I will hit myself in the face when I walk fast (due to gravity taking its toll).

girl_dee 06-24-2011 11:02 AM

When I walk around looking for my glasses, and I am wearing them

When I cramp I places I never cramped before.
*sigh*

Chancie 06-24-2011 12:28 PM

People tell me that I look pretty young for my age; I just turned 50.

But, I was in the supermarket the other day, and

There was a very proud papa with his beautiful adorable infant, and

She was wearing a tiny lace trimmed dress that was obviously a family heirloom, and

I asked her if she would like to be in my math class in 14 years, and

The papa said, If you're still teaching, you mean.

tiggs 06-24-2011 11:24 PM

I knew I was getting older when this happened to me. A friend and I were having a conversation at work about memory loss and alzheimers. A few minutes into the conversation we were distracted by something going on, as it wasn't anything serious we went back to our conversation. Well at least we tried to, unfortunately we couldn't remember what we were talking about. :confused:

swan 06-24-2011 11:33 PM

I know I'm getting older when I do stupid stuff like buying groceries before books and eating dinner before dessert.:seeingstars:

MissItalianDiva 06-25-2011 03:49 AM

Pride weekend here in SF is no longer a big deal to me and I can think of 50 other things I would rather do

*Anya* 06-25-2011 06:15 AM

I remember when..
 
When I was in my early 20's, it cost me 50 cents a gallon to pump gas into my VW Bug (I loved that car); when I was a kid, we only had channels 2,4,7,11 & 13 on our TV with a remote the size of a half-gallon of milk; I saw the Beetles play 3-weeks in row on the Ed Sullivan show and when Mick Jagger had no wrinkles; when Womens Lib first started & I used to hold Consciousness Raising groups in my small apartment!

As my daughter's used to say when they were teens: Gee mom, how
old are you anyway?!

Daktari 06-25-2011 08:37 AM

You know you're old when...
 
...you're going through puberty in reverse :whoop:

deb_U_taunt 06-25-2011 10:36 AM

1. I remember having party lines, but no long phone numbers I dialed yesterday.
2. I have Dr phone numbers in my cell.
3. I have a mini-van because its easier to get dogs to the dog park and to grocery shopping.
4. I stopped stressing the small shit, if a friend stops by and I didn't vacuum that morning. I don't care.
5. I am much more unconditional with myself and more comfortable in my own skin.
6. I find myself skipping posts with smaller bright font if I am still having a hard time leaning back and its still fuzzy (sorry to those people I have passed on their postings at times). And yes I am increased the text size on my browser and wearing the reading glasses..lol)

Julie 06-25-2011 10:39 AM

I know I am getting older.
Because I spend hours watch Nip Tuck on Netflix...
And am planning my next plastic surgery.

Wrinkles are so over-rated.

This could be a list of mine! Ah, those were the days! And the younger folks here will be making their own lists one day.

Andrew, Jr. 06-26-2011 01:11 PM

I know I am getting older:
 

*My neighbor drops off Maryland Senior Living after going to the grocery store;

*My misaligned hips feel misaligned; :canoworms:

*Insurance people call trying to sell me different policies, but when they find out just 2 of my pre-existing conditions I am now not eligible for any of their policies;

*The sales going on at Vitamin World are huge. :canadian:

deb_U_taunt 06-26-2011 02:20 PM

A friend called last night about 8ish and asked if she woke me. :(
