Things That Make You Feel Old (2 Viewers)

On Tuesday evening I moved mine out of his cottage in Chincoteague following his 30-day stint in inpatient rehab, but that’s another story

That event hasn’t made me feel old, it’s taken 10 years off my life. The bar we had all set for him “graduate from college, etc” has now been lowered to “don’t drink today”

It’s tough, and it ****** sucks
When we open ourselves up to share personal and painful matters such as this, we help each other more than we know. I know it’s not easy for me to talk about hurt. Thank you for sharing and being genuine; I’m pulling for you and your family and for all of us who are going through things.

Much appreciated my friend.
 
Not being included at work events/functions.

And not on purpose mind you, but by age. The younger people flock together and do things, talk, laugh and so on and I am on the outside of it. I used to be in the younger group but as things happen, I'm not included.

Case in point: Three of my coworkers were talking and one of them is turning 33. To which the other two said, "Man, you are getting old." To which I turned around and said, "With all due respect, **** off." Yes, they laughed but it was a bit of blow to the ego......
And the reality is that at some point we beg off going to “functions” in the middle of the week cuz gotta get up in the morning and the recuperative powers are not what they once were
 
Porculator just reminded me Perry Farrell is 65 years old
Ha yea, I was surprised myself when I googled to confirm. All the grunge era guys are pushing 60 now but there's something about when your favorite artists start hitting that social security age it hits much harder I think
 
I work in a therapy department of 4. Caseload is kind of low and it seems we spend more time working on one another's various maladies than with patients. My shoulder, SLP's foot, Social worker's back, PT's scar massage from elbow surgery...

We total over 100 years experience between the 4 of us. We're veterans :hihi:

Not a music artist, but seeing Tony Hawk pitching some old person joint supplement on TV was legitimately horrifying for me.
