Okay, I'm officially old

[morgana]

Got fitted for hearing aids today. sigh

[Tama]

You're not old until you start taking them out and using the 'I left my hearing aids in xxx place' excuse just to ignore people.

[Ben_Who]

I have dentures! A full upper plate!

...Yay.

[csquared]

At least once a month, I get an enrollment package from AARP.

[Pimento]

I'm almost 30 ....there's grey hairs

[Sliceanddice]

I'm almost 30 ....there's grey hairs

pff i started getting a few of those at 23

[Tama]

I wonder why you get grey hair so early...?

[Kazim]

Too many SCs gives gray hairs

[protege]

I turn 38 in less than 2 months. When I get my hair cut...the amount of grey clippings on the floor is truly disturbing

[Amina516]

At least once a month, I get an enrollment package from AARP.

I had to go to a cardiologist for some heart issues.

Ever since then I get AARP mailings, Medicare mailings and phone calls for a free Life Alert. Im 30.

No greys though.

Morgana, Itll be ok! At least you'll be able to hear better or more clearly. Good luck.

I'm 35, I can deal with the grey hairs, the fact that my reading sight is now longer than my arms (when you can't hold the page far enough away to see it you need the glasses), that I now need to wear knee pads at work to crawl around, and the fact that my kid has never heard of or seen things that were standard issue for people my age. What really makes me feel old is the adult men we hire that have never heard of Sid vicious, Freddy mercury, or Kurt cobain!

The boss refuses to put in a better screening process for new hires that won't make me feel ancient.

At least you'll be able to hear all the things people say to make you feel old now.

"I can manage my bifocals,
To my dentures I'm resigned;
I can cope with my arthritis,
But how I miss my mind....."

(a little ditty a wonderful elderly friend used to sing)

[dalesys]

"...But how I miss my mind....."

Didn't used to... which is why it's shot fill of holes...

[Kanalah]

Hubs started going grey at 16.

Also I am still considered "too young" to be a quilter. *sigh*

My kids consider "Bohemian Rhapsody" to be 'that Muppet song' grrrrr

[NorthernZel]

One of my "gosh-darn-it-I'm-old" moments:

The whole Zel household was watching a documentary about the history of hiphop/rap music and there was a segment about Human Beat-Boxing.

Which caused Lil'Zel to ask: "So, Mom and Dad, back when you were young, it was cool to do fart noises with your mouth? Really?!"
