You're running out of people to drunk dial.
Being in a relationship sure is alien. Kind of like when Gus and I are fighting and he doesn't make eye contact while doing that thing there that he does, down there.
You are listening to some newfangled music, and learn that your dial is set to an "oldies" station.
You are given a senior discount without even asking for it.
At the Thanksgiving dinner, your nephew is talking about retirement.
I sometimes wonder about dying during the night and worrying about the lady Diane coping with all that would empact her life.
There are many people who love her in this world who would help her through that. Hard as it may be, she wont be alone..
When you rely on your bones rather than tuning to the weather channel.
When you see the thread title, and think "Oh hey that's what I was thinking of starting, to write down that... one thing... dammit what was it???"
When you realize that your grandson is old enough to vote.
When you get up at 6am to get coffee at McDonalds on the weekend.
I don't do that, but really old fossils do.
When you hope that your youngest Cub and your Grand Cub aren't graduating high school on the same day. (That happened to me this week)
when you can play chutes and ladders on the veins that are on the backs of your hands
When 13 year-old girls won't even LOOK at you anymore--not even after you promise them beer and cigarettes.
Oh well, I may be getting old, but at least I'm dignified.

they're probalby thinking "Beer and cigarettes? If this cheap f*ck can't afford cocaine he can't afford me. "
i am getting to an age when i can only enjoy the last sport left ,
it's called "hunting for my spectacles" .
lord grey of fallodon
i don't generally feel anything until noon , then it's time for a nap .
bob hope
your youth's done fail , all your pep's gone ,
pick up that suitcase , travel on !
american blue's tune

You know, you might be right. I could stand to be more of a gentleman.
When you start a "getting older" thread to make yourself feel better....
When people won't let you do anything anymore. Son in law wouldn't let me help him move. A guy carrying loads up the ladder to keep me from doing it- -and on and on. I have to fake them out and do it before they can step in front of me.
When you son starts getting grey hair. Oy.
When you shoes squeek from your orthodics.
