I've always considered myself pretty level headed, fairly intelligent and having a pretty positive outlook on life, but things are changing. Oh no…. I’m getting old and, oddly enough, I seem to like it! There are far fewer hangovers, considerably fewer terrible decisions being made and many more meaningful friendships.
Life is still fun, but it seems to be a different type of fun.
How do you know you are officially on track to being “old”?
Well your life may look a little something like this:
1. A massage is literally what you need right now.
2. What doesn't hurt is currently numb.
3. That sparkle in your eye is from the sun hitting your bifocals.
4. Your mind loves to make deadlines your body can't complete.
5. You wake up early on days you can sleep in.
6. You consider going to the Costco a “busy weekend.”
7. People call at 9 p.m. and ask, "Did I wake you?"
8. You had a brief moment when you literally forgot how old you are.
9. Teenagers exasperate you.
10. You no longer know every song on the radio…
11. …but you can sing along with the elevator music.
12. You finally know all the answers, but the kids have stopped asking you the questions.
13. You have reached the top of the ladder and find that it is leaning against the wrong wall.
14. You no longer care what you look like when going to the Quickie Mart down the street.
15. A fine wine is your new beer.
16. You turn out the lights for economic rather than romantic reasons.
17. You have a party and the neighbors don't even realize it.
18. You know to avoid certain drinks/shots…
19. …and you actually avoid them.
20. You know what the word "equity" means.
21. You have a “dream home” board on Pinterest.
22. A fire in the fireplace makes you happy…..
23. … and so do new socks.
24. You firmly believe that the Dyson Ball vacuum is one of the greatest inventions of our time.
25. You’ve had to look up internet slang…. HAND, TTYL
Cheers!
