.....you are going to a concert this evening at 8pm and you're planning on taking a nap after work so you can stay awake for the whole concert.
Not a Joke. Leaving work at 2. Taking a nap. Going to see Greta Van Fleet at 8.

You have to leave the show by midnight because 1) you can barely keep your eyes open and 2) you know you'll be up at 7 regardless of what time you go to bed4

I started to feel 'old' when professional athletes younger than me started to retire and those around my age are called 'old' (I'm looking at you Tom Brady!)3

You know you're getting old when dinner conversations revolve around body functions (or lack of), what new meds the doctor has put you on, and what Medicare plan you're going to sign up for in December.1

When you realize that you are in the group called "senior citizens" and you get a discount on seniors citizen's day in the store.

Heck, there must have been days when I was in my 40s where I looked old, as I would get the Sr discount back then...0 -

I do have t-shirts older than my kid. I still wear them.
You know you're getting old when your favorite music stations on the radio start with the words "classic".4 -

You know you're getting old when you know you won't be able to "take pics and post them please". Have yet to take a selfie.3 -
When you are talking to your friends about "getting" some the night before and you are actually referring to sleep.9

You hear about a movie that you love and realize it was released 20 or 30 years ago.
8.30pm is too late to start watching a movie (I know a bunch of people older than me that stay up until midnight though).
Things you used to love have lost all their appeal (rollercoasters)
Your kids have no idea what most of the electronics you grew up with are
You're talking to adult friends that tell you that they read books that 'just came out' in middle school and high school
You're still listening to the same music you were listening 20 years ago and it still feels like it just came out

When you keep over the counter pain relievers on your nightstand.1 -
