How do you know when you are getting older?

Diva · 04-19-2011, 10:26 PM

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

DamselFly · 04-19-2011, 10:37 PM

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.

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!

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

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).

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.

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.

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

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.

Andrew, Jr. · 06-26-2011, 01:11 PM

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

*My misaligned hips feel misaligned;

*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.
