Are we grown up?

The reason I like to blog is because it goes back to the good ol days of the internet when it was just a bunch of dorks posting stuff, before it got all corporate and stuff. It was fun and exciting.

Anyways, I am all grown up now, and don't have as much fun as I always would like. (meaning I would rather just do nothing at all)

Here are some signs you've gotten older. From subgenius.com

1. Your potted plants are alive. And you can't smoke a
one of them.

2. Having sex in a twin-sized bed is absurd.

3. You keep more food than beer in the fridge.

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

5. You hear your favorite song on an elevator.

6. You carry an umbrella. You watch the Weather Channel.

7. Your friends marry and divorce instead of hookup
and breakup.

8. You go from 130 days of vacation time to 7.

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

10. You're the one calling the police because those darn kids
next door don't know how to 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 car payments
go up.

14. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald's.

15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.

16. You no longer take naps from noon to 6 p.m.

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

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

19. You go to the drugstore for Ibuprofen and antacids,
not condoms and pregnancy test kits.

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

21. You actually eat breakfast foods 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. Over 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is
for real work.

24. You don't drink at home to save money before going
to a bar.

25. You read this entire list looking for one sign that doesn't
apply to you!

lol...the only thing sadder than relating to this list, is the fact that I am overjoyed in finding one item that doesn't apply to me - #18 (you can't the Buffalo out of the boy!!). Woo Hoo, I'm not THAT old!!

Just to bandage my bruised ego, I'm mentally re-titling this list: "signs you are no longer immature and stupid"

Ah, MUCH better.

5 out of 25. I'm safe for a few years yet.
