Stuff happening lately that reminds you you're getting older (1 Viewer)

Many moons ago the family Christmas movie used to be Frosty and Rudolph, then it was Christmas Story and Home Alone. Now? Die Hard

Condolences, Mrs. R. I have no real words or pearls of widsom. We're all getting there, barring predeceasing. I don't look forward to it. I hope that didn't hurt too much.

Thank you.  It wasn't all that bad.  They all lived a good, long time.  If my mom hadn't had Alzheimer's, it would have been entirely okay.  It does fry your brain, though. 

And it's just weird.

 
Just leaving urgent care cuz I discovered a huge bruise on the BACK of my leg BEHIND my knee.   A day later above my kneecap swelled up. No idea how any of this happened.  Greetings from the Walgreens prescription pickup line. 

 
couple years ago we got a new dog. a staffy. about a year old.  she was rough and tumble at first. needed lots of training.

i took her out in the yard to burn off some of her energy. grabbed one of her tug toys off the ground. she ran from a distance away, grabbed the tug toy while i was still holding on to it and kept running before i could let go.... the half second i was holding it after she grabbed a hold was long enough for her to wrench/stretch/tear my elbow.

never got it looked at it but holy #### did it hurt. instant searing pain. a lot. and it lasted for months.

3 years later my elbow is stiff all the time. if i sleep with my arm bent instead of straight, when i wake up my elbow on down is stiff, sore and achy for hours after.

In the Mary Ann vs. Ginger debate, you decide Mrs. Howell doesn't look all that bad either and deserves some consideration as well.

He may look like a nerd, but The Professor has it made in the shade.  2 cuties and a rich old woman to work on while "stuck" on a secluded island.

I bet you actually tore some tendons or some medically thing like that.

 
So this happened today.    Had the day off, so I message my son to bring over Coronas and pizza at noon and watch some hockey.   I had one beer.  At 4pm, I had to take a nap for 40 minutes or I would have been nodding at 5pm dinner, where we went out for mexican.   I had one margarita, and came home with a huge headache due to the alcohol.

 
2, 2 oz glasses of rum, a burger, and a 16oz beer and I have trouble sleeping, stomach problems and mild diarrhea.   Unreal

 
Yeah, I had 2 1/2 beers last night and feel like dog #### this morning at work.   

Opposite of some of you, I could have an energy drink and fall asleep 30mins later.   Not sure why I keep injesting it, as caffeine seems to have little effect on me - I am just perpetually tired.  

 
Now living in my 8th decade , and I turned 60 like 70 days ago.

have you been to see a heart doctor? your brain may not be getting enough blood flow  :(

I don't know if this is medically accurate, but I always seem to crash on caffeinated beverages unless it's a cup of dark roast.

Then all bings are on.

I was thinking low thyroid hormone.  See your primary care doctor.  It's not that scary.

When you can't stay up late enough to see who is on the New Years Eve shows.

My wife and I were gong to watch Family Man (her favorite holiday movie, we hadn't gotten around to it yet ) since our kids are too old to do New Years stuff with us anymore.  She loves New Years, but we were on our own.  I suggested the movie, and I thought we started it at a good time to end shortly before the new year.  We could then turn on the TV, watch the countdown, and go to bed.  Well, I woke up at 12:30, and the TV was already off.  I asked why she didn't wake me at 12:00 so we could do the countdown and toast.  She replied that I was snoring too loudly, she didn't think she'd be able to wake me.

 
For the first time in my marriage, I didn't ring in the New Year with a bang (if you know what I mean). Never felt so old in all my life. :bag:

 
As they announced all of the performers for the NYE broadcast, I thought to myself, "Who the hell are these people?"

A few years ago, the entertainment at one of the NYE shows we were watching was Pitbull.  I made a joke/comment that this show was so lame they were hiring a guy from the Dr Pepper adds to be the entertainment.  That's when I learned he was an actual performer.

Took my kids sledding for the first time yesterday. I remember being able to run, slide, fall, sled, land hard off jumps, etc. and it never hurting. 

Such is not the case anymore. 

 
Groin pulls from getting in and out of one's car. That last for days. That reminds you you're not cool driving a nice sports car, you're really too old to own one. 

Sucker in two seats.
