I was talking to my sister about it a few days ago. I knew I was getting old on September 19th, 2006.
That date but in 1985, there was a huge earthquake in Mexico City. On 2006 I watch a documentary about it and I couldn't believe that I remember that morning (the earthquake was at 7 am) very well. 21 years later.
That made me think that about 5 years ago when someone mentioned "20 years ago" I didn't know what they were talking about because I don't really remember 1983. Now, if someone says the same, I know what they're saying because I clearly remember 1988.
That's what make me know I'm getting old, to remember what happened many years ago...
not as active
u are out of breath after going up the stairs
can't walk
when you are coming down stairs and you get tired.
that means getting old sweetie.
also, asking is a kinda good reason.
I know when I sit down in a chair and I go "Grrrrrrrrr" - like it's a big effort or something. Friends get on me about it, and I don't even realize I'm doing it.
you have gray hair
oh no that means you're a nervous wreck
that too and creaky bones and going to bed earlier and forgeting things and on and on and on.
I can not drink as much as I used to be able to! I also notice that places that were firm before are not so firm now! I guess this is just life!
The lovely hair that is sprouting out of my upper lip.
I know I'm getting old by looking at the calendar. Way too many birthdays. But physical stuff, while not strange, is getting tougher to do. Also, I have no intention of taking up rock climbing.
I can't remember, what was your question????
No patience to lay on the beach the whole day, get bored with gossip, my looks are not the number one priority. I hate when the TV or radio is too loud. Is this enough? (:>
my blonde moments have become senior moments
when you say turn that music down
When FruityPebbles makes you nauseous and wheat chex with honey is yummy :)
I don't think twice about giving my avatar a mohawk, but for myself, I wonder what people would think of me, specifically the people at the Social Security office.
If 90% of your dreams are reruns then you've got a serious problem.

How about this one Indigo..
You know you're getting old when your first born child walks into your house with his girlfriend and says.. "Dad, we're getting married!"
And when you open your mouth to say "You're too young.." you realize he is a year older than you were when you married his mother.
No wonder he won't let me change his diaper anymore...sigh.
I AM getting old...Thanks ever so much for REMINDING me!
;)
When questions like this actually annoy you..=)
Hair growing is strange places. I got out of the shower the other day and noticed a hair on my side. I tried to brush it off and then grabbed it and pulled and it was stuck, growing there.. Go figure.
for a Man, You know that you are getting old when you see a guy wearing shorts and black knee high socks with sandals.And it doesn't look all that bad.. You are getting old...
not wanting to go out as much and when you do anything past 9.30pm and you start yawning your head off! forgetting things, like where did I put my keys, mobile, purse etc... relating big time to Grumpy Old Men/Women!
You make noises when you get out of a chair.
After a hard workout you are sore two or three days later rather than the next day like when you were younger (even your pains are older and slower).
You think kids are complete morons and they were much smarter when you were young.
You start voting republican because you think with your head instead of your heart and genitals.
You started liking baked chicken over fried chicken.
You hate reality tv.
You don't have anything to worry about, from you picture your still beautiful.
When one day you realize that you can't see the directions on the aspirin bottle, they are blurry and you say " Hmmm? strange, they must be making the print smaller"
