#26 You can remember a time if you saw a woman in the street wearing a long black roba and a head scarf, you knew she was a Roman Catholic nun.

2. Having sex in a twin bed is out of the question.

*whew* I'm not as old as I thought. Yippee!

24. You drink at home to save money before going to a bar.

Isn't this a sign you haven't grown up? If this is accurate, I grew up really young.

"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 ass."

Ouch! ;)

12. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.

A few months ago I got off of my plane flight home around midnight and figured I'd treat myself to a beer before going to bed. I walked in the convienience store and had to ask them when they quit selling alcohol. (I've been in this county for 10 years.)

For a lot of these I can give the same answer now, at 40, than I could've given at 20. My music is louder, my bedtime is later, my caffeine intake is higher, and my sex life -- well, now I have a sex life.

You're the one calling the police because those damn kids next door won't turn down the stereo.

The first time I did this was an epiphany!

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

4. 6:00 AM 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.

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

All of these apply. The ones that really got me was the elevator and the Weather Channel ones.

Kinda reminds me of last week when I was at the bar watching a late game. I was putting money in the juke and for an extra buck you could move your song to the front of the list, so I moved every song I played forward (Heart,John Cougar, Huey Lewis LOL!). A kid in his 20's finally came up to me at the urging of his girlfriends and asked me to stop pushing his songs back. He told me he had some CCR coming up that he wanted to hear. I responded "Creedence? Great they are one of my favorites. If I knew they were on the machine I would have played them!"

"No,"he replied, "Cross Canadian Ragweed!"

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

I don't know, I think nice jeans (worn in to that just right state) a sweater or some other high quality long sleeve collarless top, with a blazer (or English wool blazer) and new shoes/boots are a pretty good get up X% of the time.

15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt. NOPE!!

Guess I will fight off growing up like Davey Crockett at the Alamo LOL.
