4. 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to bed.

5. You hear your favorite song on an elevator.

6. You watch the Weather Channel.

7. Your friends marry and divorce instead of hook up and break up.

8. You go from 130 days of vacation time to 14.

9. Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."

10. You're the one calling the police because those %&@# kids next door won't turn down the stereo.

16. You no longer take naps from noon to 6 PM!

17. Dinner and a movie is the whole date instead of the beginning of one.

18. Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 AM would severely upset, rather than settle, your stomach.

20. A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff."

21. You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.

23. 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real work.

24. You drink at home to save money before going to a bar.

25. You read this entire list looking desperately for one sign that doesn't apply to you and can't find one to save your sorry old behind.

This goes well with all of that 'age' topics.

And yes, life changes, unfortunately.

[xcom freak]

LOL LOL
Great list !!!!!!
Guess i am totaly not grown up yet and i dont think i will be for quite some time now!!!

[Classic Pig]

My philosophy is simple...

Growing older is a must but growing up is something entirely different. Why be old and grey before your time? Stay young by livivng for today and not yesterday or when you were... and life becomes a continual voyage of discovery and wonder rather than a boring dull experience.

Also you know you are old when you can still remember playing the classic games on Abandonia on the machines they were originally designed on. (when I was your age alley cat was cool...)
