Child hood... thinking California games for the commodore 64 had great graphics ... LOL

Now childhood is all gone and spent on trying to be a grown up, so you don't have to live by anyone else's rules. Thinking that people in there late 20's and god forbid in their 30's are old. And now you wish you could smack that smart ass kid down the street.. but you know he will just call the cops.. Why didn't kids have rights when I was growing up??

When seat belts were that thing that jabbed you in the back on road trip, well mom and dad chain smoked in the front seats with the windows up...

But now you that you're all grown up.. freedom to do what you want means the realization that all the really fun things either cost money or a possible night in the warmth of a cold jail cell...

Now looking back I would have to say what I miss most is the fantasy of what I thought grownup life would be... when the hell did they invent bills, hangovers (WTF is the deal with these 2 day hangovers where the hell did they come from), workings till you fall asleep at your desk waking up just to work some more,

Well now...

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

Keep more food than beer in the fridge.

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

We hear our favourite songs in an elevator, sing along with it...

Watch the Weather Channel. And know the channel number by heart...!

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

We go from 130 days of vacation time to 14.

Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."

You're the one calling the police because those %!@.. kids next door won't turn down the stereo.

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."

"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 quit trying to hold your stomach in, no matter who walks into the room.

You're proud of your lawn mower.

Your best friend is dating someone half their age, and isn't breaking any laws.

You would rather go to work than stay home sick.

You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.

People call at 9:00 p.m. and ask, "Did I wake you?"

You answer a question with, "Because I said so."

You can't remember the last time you laid on the floor to watch television.

You talk about "good grass" and you're referring to someone's lawn.

You have a party and the neighbours don't even realize it.

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