Ok I might be seriously giving myself a bad rap but I have rarely been carded since I was 21. That is just sad. I don't believe I was even carded that day. I hope it's the laziness of the cashiers...

denial....such a 'you're getting old' thing.......;)
i kid, i kid!
i LAUGH when i get carded now. granted it is far, far, faaaarrrrr more rare nowadays, and i assume it's just *policy* b/c there is no way in hell i could ever be taken for under 21. hell, not even under 30 anymore. :shock: i may be gettin' old, but i AM realistic in many ways....
i uded to get carded fairly regularly up until 35. i loved it. of course, more than likely, it's simply a NY thing = always worried about getting busted selling to minors and not that i looked that damn good. :?:P
as to the hangover, that is SO my husband. i think it's the one main thing that pisses him off. :twisted:Stay with me...
Let's just breathe...

Yeah, if I get shitfaced (which rarely happens anymore), I am worthless for like 2 days... a friday night out ruins my whole weekend.
And along the lines of your geeky ones, you know that you are old when you remember using Lotus for spreadsheetsMy whole life
was like a picture
of a sunny day

Wanna feel older than me? I was in elementary and jr. high using wordperfect...Word came along before I needed to use any type of spreadsheet program.... I started on computers early...which explains my current profession.
You know you're old when a 25 minute car ride is pretty much a short one. When you're little that seems like a forever!!!bugs in the way...I feel about you

No, I didn't think anything bad! You and I are going back and forth with that today huh?
