You know you're old when............



You know you're getting old when you can't stand the neighbors because they've got a garage band and you're mad that you're not able to take a Sunday nap!
I remember going to see Sublime play at backyard parties and warehouse parties in high school and loving every minute of it. I'm not sure if it was the music, freezing my butt off while trying to look cute or just being defiant because I wasn't suppose to be there according to my parents.
Now, I enjoy music in a whole different way ie; not outside in freezing cold weather and not when I'm in my own house trying to rest with the kids.
I feel old because in the old days I woulda gone across the street and hung out with "The cool band guys"instead of getting pissed off that they've been practicing day and night for two days!
Oh well, that's why we don't stay 18 forever.
Thank God!

  1. Hmmm life does come full circle now doesn't it? LOL. I don't remember having a nap for years...even now with the snoring beast in my house it's hard to get a good nap. Guess between bands and beasts (aka Hubbys) naps can be a rare happening.
    As for looking cute I guess we'll have to live vicariously through Miss Grace she's our Little Cutie Pattootie. Life is good!

  3. Oh, naps are such a luxury!

    Plus it's true -- if it's too loud, you're too old!

  4. Yes, my brother in law practices the guitar at times and I intend to get annoyed because of of the irritable noise. When I was a kid, I use to listen to some hardcore Metallica with the volume of 10+ and sleep with ease. What the heck happen to me? LOL
