FYI: you are not old. Didn't anybody ever tell you that 40 is the new 20.
I'm too old to do math, besides my abacus is still getting fixed at the shop.

You know you're getting old when................. the cataracts in your eyes are so bad, you can't see the halo around cmarieh's head.

Cmarieh, you're an angel!!! Now can you do me a favor and help me find my motorized senior's walker so I can get to the shop and pick up my abacus?

Descyple you are too sweet. I don't think of myself that way at all. By the way I could just steal one, oh wait that would be wrong.:cool:

I got one, you are getting old when you pour a cup of coffee and then pour a glass of apple cider, totally forgetting you poured a cup of coffee.
OR
When I am sitting in class and a pen and a pencil get me confused, trust me it happens every day.

Descyple, apparently that is because it is around her ankle now....:p


You know you are getting old when you walk into a room to get something and forget what it was within the time it took to walk across the room and do this multiple times in a row.

I don't like the Cadbury Eggs. But yes not being able to handle as many sweets as you used I can agree with you there.

That's just your body trying to keep you alive.


Drown that instinct out with heavy desserts, then work out really hard in the gym... it'll all balance out.

Once the memory loss sets in, you won't know you are getting old!
So the fact that we can reply to this statement means we are not over the hill just yet!

You know you're getting old when................. someone at the dinner table asks you to "pass the pepper" but with your bad hearing you think they say "pass the Pepto" and you reach into your 1940's tweed sports jacket and pull out your prescription bottle of Peptobismal, which you carry with you at all meals, because everything you eat now "strongly disagrees" with your stomach.

I thought you said the prescription was from the 1940's and the I read it again. I think that I need to learn how to read again:confused:
