Totally second the rocking out at Giant. And that going there on Friday night is a night out for me.


Ha! You're right. I guess it just seems like yesterday that I was partying every weekend! Thanks for making me feel even 1 more year older.

Some nights I fall asleep before my kids do.
Bought my first pair of reading glasses.
Think more about retiring than advancing my career.

Read the pot-smoking thread and realized I haven't touched the stuff for 25 years...

I fell asleep on the couch while watching loony tunes with my 3 yo at 4pm.

I went to bed on Saturday night at around 10pm and was totally ticked off at the adults a couple of houses down who were having a party out on their balcony. 1. It was 10pm on a Saturday night, not at all late or a weeknight. 2. They weren't yelling, just laughing and having conversation. 3. How lame am I? 4. I was so excited to go to bed that early. With a 15 month old in the room next door, I was exhausted!

My delicate eye area now looks just like my father's does; he's 72 and looks like Robert De Niro. I look like a tranny.

Spelling assistance?

I know how to spell, thank you. I do, however, make the occasional typing error.

After I had my daughter, I found some gray eyebrow hairs- at age 36! The horror! I plucked a few, and eventually they stopped coming in gray. Pregnancy/post-partum is really the only time I've had gray hair - I think the hormones were shocked for awhile.

I don't like the way my butt/thighs look out of clothes so I don't look at them anymore. I still look great in clothes. It doesn't affect my dating - I'll still get naked with a guy - but sometimes there's that little shred of, "ew, hopefully he's not turned off by my cellulite, stretch marks and veins."

I get a little excited when I get carded for booze, though it happens a bit less frequently than it used to.

My hangovers are really bad these days, so I'm cutting back on crazy nights out - and not minding that much.

I couldn't identify more than one Justin Bieber song and suspect that secretly, he is a Minion of the Antichrist. But I like a lot of the "new" music that's out there.

Gas cost 32 cents a gallon. I walked to school or rode my bike. In elementary school, we practiced getting under our desks and covering our heads with our arms in case of nuclear attack. My HS friends had 8 tracks. And CB radios. I sunbathed with baby oil.


OMG. I remember hotpots at college, not to mention most of the rest of this stuff, although I'm just a few years too young to have done the duck and cover drills.

I know I'm old because my child is taller than me, double coupons at Harris Teeter were my thrill last Saturday, and I am now so blind that I no longer see all the pet hair on the carpet.

The smell of weed from the condo upstairs is annoying.

1) kids whose diapers I used to change are now pursuing their PHDs.
2) I get really pissed when anybody calls my house after 8 pm. Who on EARTH would be calling someone at such and ungodly hour?
3) can't sleep in anymore. Body just will NOT cooperate.
4) had a problem with "dry eye" and the doctor told me he often sees this in "women your age". Um, I just had a baby 36 months ago, and now I'm on a med for the geriatric set!

...when you find out that your son's orthodontist graduated from the same college you did. Except that it was FIFTEEN years after you did. And he's not a brand new orthodontist. Sigh.
