I'm old because I didn't even realize the AMAs were on.
I'm also old because I don't think I am able to appreciate the whole YouTube "unboxing" craze at all.
ETA: I would love to see this thread retitled to "I'm old because..." and then we can all just sit here and be old together. A game of bunco may even break out.

I think an "I'm old because" tread is excellent. Let me count the ways I am old

Oh no, I'm serious.
I'm the oldest person my age I know. From my bag of medicine with a pill cutter, to my sorry bladder, and plethora of specialists, I am definitely old.
I bought a really pretty and kind of expensive scarf from a local vendor at the end of summer fair. I just washed it for the first time and it fucking frayed! It's a huge knot of ruined thread.
I have zero motivation to do anything this morning. I feel like I have tons of shit I need to get done, but damned if I can figure out what that might be.
Also I missed my long run this weekend for the first time since I set my sights on a half marathon. Forgot to pack a sports bra so I couldn't do it while traveling and then it took foreeeeevvverrrrr to get home on sunday - friends dawdled like CRAZY sunday AM, long drive back, went to pick up Shorti at the IL's which takes forever, then realized we forgot to pick up MH's truck from my office where we'd left it on Friday and had to turn and drive another hour.
By the time we got home and settled it just wasn't going to happen. But now I'm pissed at myself and trying to figure out what I do about it. Today is supposed to be my active rest day (usually a walk or bike and a yoga video). Do I just run instead and pick up the rest of the week? Skip it and keep going as if it happened? Fuck if I know.
It's also looking less and less likely that i'll be able to do the half I had picked out anyway. So. Yeah.
Facilities finally turned the heat on in my building, never mind it's 60 degrees outside right now. Plus it has that burnt dusty smell from the vents. Not a good combination with already-unhappy sinuses.
I also did weights with a lot of squats/lunges on Saturday, and then a run yesterday. For some reason my right hamstring and my left quad are sore; it's a weird combination to deal with when I try to do things.
I'm irrationally irritated at DH for being a dedicated and conscientious employee - lol. He took the whole week off, but he's going in today and tomorrow because he has so much work to do. I can't tell you how many times he's been screwed over by other, stereotypical federal workers. "I know your entire project is held up until I do my part, and the Secretary of the Department gave you a deadline, but I leave at 3 on Fridays/it's my day off/I'm on leave, so sucks for you!" Meanwhile, DH has taken calls from Disneyland and reviewed comments on the beach in Mexico because he'd never leave someone hanging.

I'm old because H and I went to dinner on Friday with friends, and when he was telling them about a job interview he'd had, everyone was over-the-top excited about the good 401(k) match.

What is unboxing??
I think she's talking about people showing off what they just bought. Meaning makeup, clothes, and in some cases - Target.

I feel old because I have multiple alarms that go off every morning to remind me to take meds. And I'm not old.
Mail order order pharmacies and phone menus were both created by people who hate humans. When they combine it makes me want to murder things. It never works correctly, ever.
On the bright side today I am finally feeling better after 16 days of being sick. Unfortunately I did not cough my way to a sixpack. Lol.

I know two young ladies who were born the year I graduated HS. They have driver permits and have applied to colleges. They are lovely people and constant reminders of how old I really am.
I'm old because I spent all weekend with my college friends being annoyed that everybody kept sleeping so late. I was up by 8:30 both days. My BFF's husband slept till noon. NOON!

I took a sick day because I woke up feeling hungover. I'm definitely not. So I went back to bed and now I feel fine. I feel a little guilty for staying home since its only 9:30.
I'm old because I thought H was dumb for wanting to start movies at 8:30-9pm this weekend. No dude, too late for me.
Me last night with W.Dead. My husband started watching and I said how long will it take if fast forward through the commercials, i have to work tomorrow. LMFAO

Lesson learned: My friend got hired at my company a couple years ago. I was the one who referred her and vouched for her. It has made our friendship strained in a lot of ways. This is why I don't mix my personal and professional life.

Haha. I've seen this with designer bags. Someone gets their first LV Speedy and she reveals it one inch at a time, even though WE ALL KNOW WHAT A SPEEDY LOOKS LIKE!!
