Damn too many of these apply to me. :(

25 Signs That You Have Grown Up
- Your potted plants are alive. And you can't smoke any of them.
- Having sex in a twin-sized bed is absurd.
- You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
- 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to sleep.
- You hear your favorite song on an elevator.
- You carry an umbrella and watch the Weather Channel.
- Your friends marry and divorce instead of hookup and breakup.
- You go from 130 days of vacation time to 10.
- Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as 'dressed up.'
- You're the one calling the police because those darn kids next door won't turn down the stereo.
- Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.
- You don't know what time McDonalds closes anymore.
- Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up.
- You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald's.
- Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
- You no longer take naps from noon to 6 p.m.
- Dinner and a movie - The whole date instead of the beginning of one.
- Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 a.m. severely upsets, rather than settles, your stomach.
- A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer 'pretty good stuff.'
- You actually eat breakfast foods at breakfast time.
- "I just can't drink the way I used to," replaces "I'm never going to drink that much again."
- Over 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real work.
- You don't drink at home to save money before going to a bar.
- You read this entire list looking for one sign that doesn't apply to you.
 
Oh Hell!

There's only four that don't apply!

<crawls out of thread looking for zimmer>
 
19 of those apply to me. And I never have considered myself as old. **runs to look in the mirror for wrinkles, only to forget where the damn mirror is**
 
Well that just confirmed what I've been trying to deny. Somebody pass me the wrinkle cream. :D
 
:( Only two of those don't apply to me.
*sigh* and one of those because I'm at work by 6am.
 
Aw, damnit, thumbs! I'm 20, and now I feel old!

There are 2 that don't apply to me!:(
 
12 don't apply to me. I suppose the 45 year old janitors who work the night shift aren't real grown-ups.
 
I guess that I should feel pretty good that only six didn't really apply to me ... so why do I still feel so old, at 28? *lol*
 
For a 27 year old I feel young again, only a couple of those things apply to me. I only get 10 days of vacation time and I caught myself singing along to a Frank Sinatra track in an elevator just yesterday:)
 
Losing hair where you want it and growing hair where you don't (i.e., ears & nose).

Much like my Dad used to do that disgusted me when I was younger, I'm listening to talk radio 24/7.

When I was younger, I was drooling over older women. Now that I'm older, I'm drooling over younger women (i.e., Britney Spears, Raven Simone', Jessica Simpsons, etc.)
