Signs You Are Getting Old-Please Add to List

[Anonymous]

today I was volunteering with a young woman and I asked her if she was in school. She replied "no, I just graduated" and I wasn't sure if she meant high school or college.

I can't pinpoint the age of anyone younger than say, 40. They all look like they're in their twenties to me.

Just got back from Disney and I enjoyed the shows more than the rides.

That was me who posted that. First of all, I'm sorry I offended you. Really. Let me explain. I think you read it very personally, but what was meant by it was a reflection on the "old people," not you. When you get to be in your forties, part of what you weigh in having sex is the mess and the fuss. Do I want to have sex, as in, how much of a mess do I want to make, do I have to take another shower, etc. I'm sorry I implied you were gross. Really, it was about me being a fuddy duddy, not you.

Amen sister. That is exactly what I think about. The best time to have sex is the night before the sheets are to be laundered.

I have to have coffee after dinner to even consider watching a movie on the couch with my husband on a Saturday night.

Sometimes I see my reflection in a window and I'm shocked that it's me. I used be an attractive girl/young woman. Now I look pinched and worried...even when I'm not worried. Sigh.

I have money in my savings account.

I no longer even worry about looking younger or cool. I have complete acceptance that I'm one of the old farts now. I just want to make sure I get to sit next to other old farts at events.

The only time I recognize someone on People Magazine (like where I could actually name the celebrity), it's a story about their final days.

Exercising now is completely for my health and not my looks.

I am actually content with the little things in life.

I can't recount a story without meandering on to other 'accessory' topics
instead of simply saying 'James fell off his roof today' (as I used to), I'll include the fact that it was raining, and the weather channel didn't call for rain so should we be looking at channel 4 weather.....

I'm in my 30's. Where can I sign up for this partying, drinking and sex?

Laughing so hard at this.

When I found out that our new "Sr. Accountant" was 10 years younger than me.

When I just finished cleaning the bathrooms on a Saturday night and then sat down to see what was up on DCUM. And didn't even feel weird about it.

I went shopping tonight and none of the clothes in my usual size fit. Rather than leaving the store on the verge of tears, I shrugged and tried on a bigger size.

(Though I also took it as a sign to buy some new workout clothes. Still, no tears.)

I understand, appreciate and agree with the phrase. "Youth is wasted on the young."

Is it just me or does she look a little like Madonna, on the cover of Vanity Fair?
