You know you are getting old when...

The bagger at the grocery store offers to take your cart to your car.

You take a half of a viagra in the morning just so you don't pee on your feet.

You have a nice long good pee at 5:30 am and a comfortable dump at 6 am but you just can't get up out of bed at 7am.

You hear a new song and then find out it is 30 years old.

When you start to weigh the physical consequences of performing manual labour or physical jobs yourself.

100% the main reason I paid to have the concrete cut, and the dirt dug and hauled off for the concrete pit for my scissor lift. I am no concrete guy, and the labor would have put me in the hospital.







I will even put the car in the air to do electrical work to avoid bending over for extended periods. Working at a comfortable position is wonderful.

And 11 days after that you find out you're getting surgery for a torn meniscus because you tried to outrun the friggin rain! Dammit

When you are a kid, you hear your dad make funny noises.

Now you make those same noises...

For me, it was that hawcking noise my dad made when spitting after brushing his teeth
