Man alot of cartoon remembered, hunh?
how about JEM, the snorks (i think theyre called that), Skinamarink, and Mr. Bumpy!?! oh man I loved them back in the day! AND SOME SHOW WITH GNOMES !! they eskimo kissed. lol
anyhoes, you know youre old/grown up when..
you can say, "well when I went to school the dress code was actually enforced"
you wake up with your kids at 5am to watch cartoons... no, they didn't wake u up, either..
you get excited when people invite you out to eat somewhere that doesn't sell hamburgers..
you really honestly ask your partner, "does this make me look fatter?"..
you go shopping in your pajamas or work out pants...
elizabeth arden starts smelling really good. i mean good enough to wear lol..
showering feels like an olymp;ic event.. (ok, i have 3 minutes before he gets home, the babys gonna sleep for another 15 minutes.. dinner has 20 minutes to go...) lol
and finally, my personal favorite reminder of my mortality..
you find yourself replacing broke-math with mommy-math.
Example:
BROKE: ok, i have 10 cigs left, i get paid in 2 days, taht means i can smoke 5 cigs a day. If ramen is 10Cents a pack, and I have $4.39 in mostly nickels..
MOM: ok, this pack has 66 diapers, but the cheaper pack has 21. If I get two packs of 21, im getting 42 diapers, and paying $2 less, but if I got the bigger pack, that means im getting 24 more diapers for only $2, so its a better deal...
LOL!!!!!!!

You know you are old when you could remember the reason why buying Cable tv was the better idea. It was so that way you would not have the stupid commercials. Anyone remember that?

You know you're old when the most excitement you have all day is when you are sitting around thinking about all the great sex you used to have!

rinjirinji Akiyhrah Your idea of a computer game was Solitaire and Chips Challenge Chip's Challenge!!!! OMG, I completely forgot about that game until just this second. I have to go download it now. xd You know you’re old when….. …you hear yourself say “because I’m your mom that’s why.” & you now understand why …your mom use to say that. lol …your children wear your old rock shirts not because they like the band but because they look cool. rolleyes …“date night” is an excuse to get away from the children. redface ….you understand why your parents made you call when you got there, or when you want to stop somewhere on the way home from school. scream …the music you grew up with is now classic rock stare …you can get a historic license plate for a car made the year you were born. cry …your “little girl” wants to date. (That alone can age you) burning_eyes …you grew up believing Pluto was a planet. question

You know when you're getting old when you start thinking about getting botox.

You know your old when You're cooking in the kitchen and you daughter brings her best friend into the house and says " This is such a beautiful house!" Because you've re-designed your life but then she turns around and sees a giant book shelf filled with Records 8 tracks 45's VHS and two record players that still works and goes, " How old is your mom by the way?"
You also know your old when, you remember when all young men use to put the seat down in the bathroom.
You really know you're old when, You are what they call " Oldest, Most Wise, Wrinkled Teacher In The Building."

You know you are old when you look back at the first computer (apple 2c) and realize that no one knows what a 8x5 floppy is. Or for that matter a boot disk.
A record is still the best way to hear music, but you cant find the needles anymore, or anyone under the age of 50 who knows what youare talking about.
How to use a slide ruler, and most have never heard of it.

I heard this on the radio yesterday and the 80's channel after they played a song from The New Kids On The Block. It went something like this:
Mom: That was great song.
Daughter: Who are these geeks?

.....you know you are old when you get out of bed in the morning and it sounds like a bag of popcorn cooking.
...... you cooked popcorn on the stove, and not in the yet to be microwave..
... you know you're old because sex happens when you both aren't sore and hurt.
