3 post in one day- whoo hoo!!
Okay, I've been thinking of this list for a while now...things that make me feel old!
- Not being able to have any caffeine after 4 pm or I can't sleep very well
- The need to go to bed earlier and earlier lately.
- Starting to like Facebook better than Myspace- Yep, I said it.
- When I find myself turning lights on so I can see better
- Being shocked when I found out a couple of girls Ocean and I met at the Jason Mraz concert were actually 21, I thought they were 16. Everyone looks so young to me ;)
- Loving my mini van
- Seeing some of my friends getting divorced. Or remarried.
- Understanding the details of a life insurance policy.
- Ella being almost 5.
- Cole being almost 8 and not letting me hug at goodbye when I drop him off at school.
- The fine lines around my eyes- UGH!
- The grey hairs in my head. Those started when I was 23 though
- Just writing "when I was 23..."
- Saying "we've been friends for 15 years" or "That was about 10 years ago"!
- Shopping for clothes and wondering if what I'm looking at is a dress or a shirt.
- Thinking that Cole will be the age I was when I graduated high school at my next reunion.
- Realizing that I have owned a pair of shoes for 12 years.
- Celebrating 10th anniversaries with people whose wedding I attended as an adult.
- Seeing people who seemed so much younger than me just a few years ago getting married and starting families.
- Having to scroll down a few notches when I am clicking on my birth year online. (did that make sense?) ;)
- Seeing fashion fads that were popular when I was a kid come back into style.
- Saying "I taped that movie", when I really record it on my DVR and didn't tape it at all.
- Remembering renting a VCR from the movie rental store and having them be almost obsolete now. And new cars not having tape players in them.
- Having my skin all of a sudden change like it's not even mine anymore. I did some research online to find out why it was changing and I read that happens as women age. Yep...that one really did it!
What makes you feel old? Or do you feel young? I feel young a lot too, but that list isn't as fun ;)

Love the list, it's so true. We're getting old! ;o)
I had a hard time the other day telling the dentist staff I was 30 (which is an awful # to say) and then I realized in another couple months I'll have to say 31. Aghhh!
At least people say I don't look 30, I still look young even if I don't always feel it. I got something going for me. Haha.
I love the list too, when I find spare time I'll have to sit and do one for myself. Luved talking or IM'ing you last night.. Lets get together for coffee or something soon!
Oh my gosh I loved this post! I laughed and can relate to most of these! How fun!
