    I was putting a record (vinyl) on to listen to and my 10 year old asked me why the cd was so big.

    I graduated high school in 1999. Kids born in 1998 are now entering high school! :noway:

    My first "baby" is getting married in a few weeks, and moving across the country. It makes me feel old and heartbroken.

    When my 4 year old told her grandma that she was downloading stuff to my phone... I was in such shock that she even knew what downloading was and knew how to go to the app store and actually download items. But the biggest shocker was when I heard myself say in a strange out of body experience "Kids today amaze me! We didn't do this stuff when I was a kid. I can still remember getting on DOS and playing checkers and thinking it was SO COOL!"

    The fact that i will have a 10 year graduation reunion next year. I mean, i don't usually feel old (i'm 27), but i just can't believe that it is almost 10 years since i graduated high school. I still feel like it happened yesterday...

    Yeah, well, 'kiddo' get in back of the line...

    The fact that I'm not flexible enough any more for some really complicated yoga positions I used to be able to do easily! :( I'm only 27 and I can't lie on my stomach and bring my legs up from behind to touch my head... I used to be able to bring them to my nose!

    I remember what T.G.I.F is and I am talking ABC programming not a restaurant.

    Having to change the rabbit ears from one channel to the next.

    I also started feeling old when they would play Nirvana on flash back lunch on the radio.

    The first home satellite taking up the whole back yard, and everyone going to the one house in the town to see the rich folks who could afford said satellite.
