YOU KNOW YOU'RE GETTING OLDER WHEN........

You no longer know/recognize who the guest "stars" are on all the talk shows, who the actors/actresses are in the latest movies, and you do not consider the latest music as music! Oh well, there's a lot to say for age, but I can't remember what that is!

I was far from old when I considered uncorrelated sounds as music. As a musician we used to do "jam sessions" and each instruments ad-libed what they played. These were fun and some times not bad music.

As time when on some that claim to be musicians decided to do what I consider a "jam session", but at a very high volume with each instrument doing?? Beats me but it did not and does not resemble music to me. If some consider making a lot of noise with instruments each playing their own rendition of who knows what? Have at it.

Now I am old and the music I listen to is my choice and that is all I listen to 90% of the time. If I am in one of our vehicles by myself I always play a CD that I either compiled myself or one of the ones my wife bought for me.

Everyone measures age in a different way and they are:

1) Chronological Age

2) Physiological Age

3) Psychological Age

4) Sociological Age

Whenever I tune into the Grammy awards, I've never even heard of most of nominees. The ones I have heard of, I heard about them in the news for getting arrested.

Actually, I don't care about the younger actors, guests on talk/interview shows.

When you fill out a checking deposit slip and date the year 1985 and like it.

When getting lucky means you find your car in the parking lot.

When conversations with people your own age often turn into "dueling ailments."

When you prefer to go out to dinner at an earlier time! But still not early enough to get the reduced price meals ( that have names like senior specials)

My husband constantly asks me if I know who a lot of the people on tv or new singers are. Most of the time I don't know anything more about them than he does. It just makes me laugh because he thinks I'm supposed to know.

..Without glasses you can't read the small print on medicine bottles and you can't read the signs down the road.

What was once your own natural, beautiful hair color now must come from a bottle.

You instantly gain 10 pounds and the weight you were all your adult life is no longer attainable without constant dieting.

When you state your age and people no longer say "you're kidding, you certainly don't look it".

I personally don't buy into this, but speaking of "dueling ailments", I NEVER talk about my issues-----and I don't like to hear about others' ---my SIL for instance---personal and frankly boring----if I can't render some aid, I don't want to hear it.......
