1. Your house plants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them.
2. Having sex in a twin bed is out of the question.
3. You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
4. 6:00am 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 damn kids next door won't turn down the stereo
11. Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.
12. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.
13. Your car insurance goes down and your payments go up.
14. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonalds leftovers.
15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
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
19. You go to the drug store for ibuprofen and antacid, not condoms and pregnancy test
20. A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff".
21. You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.
22. "I just can't drink the way I used to," replaces, "I'm never going to drink that much again."
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 butt.

Let's see, numbers 4, 11, 12, and 21 apply to me. I always have to get up early on school days and eat breakfast. Just another sign that I'm growing up. If I had the choice, I'd want to stay at 4 years old. :rolleyes:

That's good. Luckily, most of those don't apply to me. I guess I'm not old. Kewleo. Par-tay.

It's sad how responsible I am. I never was half of these. Although I still have stayed up until 10 am before (was quite an experience).

I did that once only I was on AGN the whole time, so I couldnt' see in the morning and I started throwing up.

I'm comming from two all-nighters in a row (which is why I was on at rediculous times the past 2 nights). Lucky for me there's no homework for tommorow (Tommorow is Saturday! Now I get to do #22).

Right now it is 12:16 pm. I've been up since about 11:30 am, yesterday. I've been drinking a lot of coffee, so I'm not really that tired. Drowsy, but not tired. I'm scared to lie down, as I may never get back up, lol.

Yeah, but the previous day it was like 6 am when I woke up, so about 28 hours of non-sleep. And my work called at about 9:30 and asked me to come in. I was tempted to, except I'd fall asleep at my register.

I can't go anymore than 3 days without sleep, anymore. :p

That's funny, cause my boss called me yesterday at 9am wanting me to come into work, too... I didn't ;)

my dad's nearly fifty and surprisingly few of these apply to him. Ironic seeing as he keeps whining about how old he's getting...
