How do you know when you are getting older? - Page 12

Greyson · 03-29-2011, 09:14 PM

I knew I was old when this evening for the first time I saw the new Whoppee Goldberg commercial about Poise. I knew what she was talking about and did not flinch when I realized I am in the targetted market for those commercials.

when my knees feel like they are made of broken glass grinding on nerve endings....

I saw my neighbor and thought he got a hearing aid...my bad. It was a part of his cell phone (blue tooth).

When I just want Justin Bieber to go away already (plus I have not even heard one of his songs yet and I don't want to and you can't make me, so there)

I was in a cigar/pipe bar yesterday. A guy was talking, and I thought he was talking to me. So I just answered him and we had a full length conversation only for me to discover he was talking on his bluetooth. I felt like an idiot.

Guy · 04-03-2011, 02:34 PM

k, yeah this just happened to me today.

I made a list for the grocery store, I usually leave it home, but this time I remembered it.

So far, so good right?

Not.

So, I get in the store, reached in my pocket, No list.

I remembered I must have left it in my truck on the passengers seat.

Sure enough I did.

Sux getting old.

I knew I had gotten older when I got an opportunity to drive a Mustang. The roar of the engine, the power of all those horses and that 5 speed manual transmission.....Once was enough....especially when having a really hard time getting out of the blasted thing.....I prefer my truck

Jesse · 04-07-2011, 04:31 PM

Made out the deposit slip to drop off at my bank on the way to the grocery the other day, thought I put both that and my wallet in my pocket. Drive down to the bank, and walk up to the teller. She waits, perhaps much too sweetly and understanding for my satisfaction, while I frantically search every pocket that I have. Finally I smile and tell her I will be right back. lol

Both were at home on the dresser of course. :eyeroll:

I take my wallet out and organize all my debits for the week and figure my checking account........if I leave the house after that I always have to come back and get my wallet. Yes the ole man always forgets to put the wallet back in his pocket Sooooooooo agadamnvatin!

Also know that I'm getting older because I have like 10 hammers and need to do a project this afternoon and can't find a hammer anywhere. Where are all of the dang hammers!

Jesse · 04-07-2011, 04:43 PM

I'll loan ya one of my ten, if I can find them.

This is priceless. I drive an SUV mainly cause it is so easy to get into and lifting patients all these years has ran havic on my back.

I do remember my hot Sebring Convertible, didn't have any problems getting into it, just problems with getting pulled over constantly. ..those were the days. *sighs.

OS Butch · 04-07-2011, 05:06 PM

I can relate to this very thing! I can never find any of my hammers when I need them. What was really bad was when I couldn't my Framing air nailer!

Hey now. I'm not quite 32 yet and I do that.

(Or maybe I'm just bored with myself.

)

I think my biggest problem (other than forgetting things, losing things, can barely get out of my car or bed without my knees and back sounding like a box of rice krispies, or the fact that I say "huh" or "excuse me?" a thousand times a day when people are talking to me) is that I officially have more white (no, not just gray, WHITE) hair than both of my parents combined. I was looking at it today because I've let the color grow out so I can change colors. I guarantee that if I did not dye my hair from now til LR, my formerly dark brown/black hair would be solid white. *le sigh*
