1. Your houseplants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them.
2. Having sex in a twin bed is out of the question.
3. You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
4. 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to bed.
5. You hear your favorite song on an elevator.
6. You watch the Weather Channel.
7. Your friends marry and divorce instead of hook up and break up.
8. You go from 130 days of vacation time to 14.
9. Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."
10. You're the one calling the police because those %&@# kids next
door won't turn down the stereo.
11. Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.
12. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.
13. Your car insurance goes down and your payments go up.
14. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald's leftovers.
15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
16. You no longer take naps from noon to 6 PM!
17. Dinner and a movie is the whole date instead of the beginning of
one.
18. Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 AM would severely upset
rather than settle your stomach.
19. If you're a gal, you go to the drug store for ibuprofen and
antacid, not condoms and pregnancy tests.
20. A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff."
21. You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.
22. "I just can't drink the way I used to"
replaces, "I'm never going to drink that much again."
23. 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real
work.
24. You drink at home to save money before going to a bar.
25. You read this entire list looking desperately for one sign that
doesn't apply to you and can't find one to save your sorry old
butt.........then you post or forward it to a bunch of old pals and friends
cause you know they'll enjoy it and do the same. :-)

I think this list just happened to me last year.
There are old divers and there are bold divers, but there ain't no old, bold divers.

1. Your houseplants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them.
Don't have houseplants and never smoked anything - disgusting habit. I'm guessing this one has always applied in spirit even when I was a teenager.
2. Having sex in a twin bed is out of the question.
You've got to be kidding! When this applies, you might as well shovel me under.
3. You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
Sometimes.
4. 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to bed.
Usually applies.
5. You hear your favorite song on an elevator.
Nope.
6. You watch the Weather Channel.
Nope.
7. Your friends marry and divorce instead of hook up and break up.
It's not an either or - both happen.
8. You go from 130 days of vacation time to 14.
How about 26?
9. Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."
Ya got me there, but I'm more casual about clothing than when I was younger.
10. You're the one calling the police because those %&@# kids next
door won't turn down the stereo.
I'll ask them first.
11. Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.
Maybe I grew up in an unusual family, but this one has applied since before I understood 'em.
12. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.
Never did.
13. Your car insurance goes down and your payments go up.
A long time ago.
14. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald's leftovers.
When I had a dog.
15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
I feel fine sleeping on the couch.
16. You no longer take naps from noon to 6 PM!
Never did.
17. Dinner and a movie is the whole date instead of the beginning of
one.
This one is a joke, right?
18. Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 AM would severely upset
rather than settle your stomach.
People actually eat those nasty boney things?
19. If you're a gal, you go to the drug store for ibuprofen and
antacid, not condoms and pregnancy tests.
I'm not.
20. A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff."
I spend a little more than that.
21. You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.
Yes, but not exclusively.
22. "I just can't drink the way I used to"
replaces, "I'm never going to drink that much again."
I was never a heavy drinker.
23. 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real
work.
Nope.
24. You drink at home to save money before going to a bar.
People actually do this?
25. You read this entire list looking desperately for one sign that
doesn't apply to you and can't find one to save your sorry old
butt.........then you post or forward it to a bunch of old pals and friends
cause you know they'll enjoy it and do the same. :-)
Nope.
11 apply, 5 partially apply, 8 don't apply at all, 1 isn't for men. Does that mean I'm almost a grup?

Still more beer in the fridge than food. I have a brown thumb. Who needs a bed for sex?
I think Kamala said it... "If I'm not in bed by 9pm, I go home!"

We all must believe in something... I believe I'll have another beer
