Things That Might Make You Go hmmmmm

I though about being serious today and realized sometimes I hate being an adult and wish that I could go back to more care free times. Being an adult is not all fun and games but today it is as I reflect on getting old and what being an adult means.

Here is my list of things that might make you go hmmmmm
I am sure most of you can relate to 1 if not all the items on my list. 



The average ten-year-old doesn't have a clue who Bo and Luke Duke are.

You have once said, "Whatcha-ya talkin' 'bout Willis?"

Two words: parachute pants

I had gray ones

Naps are good.

The only thing in your cereal box is ... cereal.

You leave concerts and ballgames early to beat the crowd.

You WANT clothes for Christmas.

You remember when Saturday Night Live was funny.

You've bought an album on vinyl.

You remember seeing Star Wars when it first came out.

Your houseplants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them. 

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

You keep more food than beer in the fridge. 

6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to bed. 

You hear your favorite song in an elevator. 

You watch the Weather Channel. 

Your friends marry and divorce instead of "hook up" and "break up." 

You go from 130 days of vacation time to 14. 

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

Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up. 

You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald's leftovers. 

Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt. 

You take naps from noon to 6 PM 

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

Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 AM would severely upset, rather than settle, your stomach. 

A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff." 

You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time. 

"I just can't drink the way I used to" replaces "I'm never going to drink that much again." 

90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real work. 

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

When you find out your friends are pregnant you congratulate them, instead of asking "Oh, Shit, What Happened?"

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 butt. 



I know this...In My Life having a little fun not being serious is what will get you through the day sometimes.
