What makes you feel old? - Page 6

Ginger · 05-18-2005

Nothing!

05-18-2005

Walking stooped over and straight legged for two days after playing hockey.
Bones popping sometimes
Bone not popping sometimes
Rap music
Grey sideburns
Hearing loss
Short arms (can't hold newspaper far enough away sometimes)
Remembering all of the original tunes that artists cover today and the kids think they are new.
Responsibilities

I'm only 29, so I guess I'm one of the young ones on this board. But I gotta tell ya, I am starting to feel old. Especially when my womens' softball team got our as*es whooped by a 13/14 year old team this past weekend...twice.

Plus, today is the first day since the tournament this weekend that I can walk without moaning.

Forgetting my reading glasses, and having my wife fill out the tip on the credit card receipt at the restaurant then showing me where to sign the bill.

Hey! I'm the wife whose husband hands her the credit card receipt to fill out the tip! Guess I should put this in the What Makes You Feel YOUNG thread!!

Bringing in my own CD's (entitled Awesome Tunes #'s 1 through 10) and having my co-workers laugh at me (snot nosed punks!!!)...

Having to constantly say "I liked the original version better" to my wife and she's only 5 years younger than me...

Having to defend "Kolchak, The Night Stalker" as a wicked TV show...

Throwing out my lower back while turning the wrong way with a box of pins...

The fact that I'm starting to enjoy high fiber food... and hate fried foods...

Having to trim my eyebrows and get rid of the hair in my ears...

My wife telling everyone I'm 40...DAMMIT WOMAN, I STILL GOT 2 YEARS

Certain things, you just shouldn't admit

[quote=Mariposita]Now when you say 'older' women, how old are we talking? I'm not hitting on you though I'm an 'older' woman (got my hubby), but I just thought it was funny since I saw this show last night on a Puerto Rican channel.

Picture this: The guy was one Latin hunk (I'm still drooling

) and the older lady was a bleached blonde in her early 70s. Anyway, she started chatting with him, feeling his muscles, running her hand up and down his chest (he was really BUILT - can you see the drool?) and the guy is looking so embarrassed. She told him that she could do whatever a younger girl could do, only better. He looked shocked and tried his best to take her hands of his body. She then moves her hips like she's doing the hula hoop thingy and he blushes (poor baby)! Then she reaches for his buttocks and he could stand it no longer. He turns to her and says in Spanish "señora, you're old enough to be my abuelita, take your hands of me and act your age!" It was hilarious, plus he won whatever it was they were giving away.

Did I just hijack this thread? Sorry! I'll leave now and continue drooling

[/QUOT

Some kind of "soft porn"???????

Dude... the sooner you admit these things... the sooner you can come to grips with them... It's not like I'm talkin' about my rod.

Last weekend I pool-crashed at James and Anna's new place and being in the water made me nostalgic for my earlier "waterbug" and lifeguard years. I decided I'd do my signature in-water backflip. Big mistake. I pulled a leg muscle in the middle of it and took in so much water through my nose I nearly drowned. It's such a betrayal, what the body can no longer do that it used to do with ease.

Do you realize that the only time in our lives that we like the thought of getting older is when we’re kids? If you’re less than 10 years old, you’re so excited about aging that you think in fractions. How old are you? “I’m 4 and a half.” You’re never 36 and a half...you’re 4 and a half...going on 5!

That’s the key. You get into your teens, now they can’t hold you back. You jump to the next number. How old are you? “I’m gonna be 16.” You could be 12, but you’re gonna be 16.

And then the greatest day of your life happens...you become 21. Even the words sound like a rite of passage ceremony...you BECOME 21...YES!!

But then you TURN 30...ooohhh what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk...He TURNED, we had to throw him out. There’s no fun now.

What’s wrong? What changed? You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, then you’re PUSHING 40.....stay over there, it’s all slipping away....

You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, you’re PUSHING 40, you REACH 50...and your dreams are all gone.

Then you MAKE IT to 60.....you didn’t think you’d make it!!!!

So you BECOME 21, you TURN 30, you’re PUSHING 40, you REACH 50, you MAKE IT to 60......by then you’ve built up so much speed you HIT 70.

After that, it’s a day-by-day thing. After that, you HIT Wednesday. When you get into your 80's, you MAKE IT to lunch. You TURN 4:30. My grandmother won’t even buy green bananas.....it’s a risky investment.

And it doesn’t end there....into your 90's you start going backwards...I was JUST 92.....

Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a little kid again as you proudly proclaim.....”I’m 100 and a half!!”
