Been meaning to post this one for a while:

...I spend a Saturday afternoon doing yard work and think, "What a great day this was!"

when I walk right by the high heels in the shoe dept.

When I input a library card, ask for an ID and I think "they are WAY too young to be driving!"

When I caught myself lecturing my roommates 16 y/o nephew about the perils of smoking and drinking while underage as well as the ramifications of dropping out of high school because he thinks can make it in pro sports and doesn't need a back-up plan.

Oh and last weekend - ready to pass out at 10pm on a Saturday night and the only reason we didn't is because we were in Vegas. And that would just be wrong! So we compromised and closed down Dicks's at 4am.

... When I lecture GD on the benefits of 401ks. (because he's so young and has years of compound interest ahead of him)

I was trying to call the 800# listed on the back of my credit card. WITH my glasses on it still took 4 tries because there was one number I just couldn't make out, so I guessed.

I know when I'm not getting older and rather just more & more immature. It's when I looked at BTD's post, saw "closed down Dick's" and giggled. Heehee... she said "dicks".

I now own four pairs of reading glasses (cheapies): one for each car, one at home and one at work.
