Having two bad knees and a bad back…

Remembering that my first home computer had 128K of ram and no hard drive.  It was advanced though,  it had a composite display and  two 5-1/4 inch floppy drives. Internet would not be available for  8 years.

Ugh. Being exhausted after walking 3 miles on almost all flat terrain. I used to be able to do that in 1 direction, while smoking, and not break a sweat.

Being told by the poll-worker that she remembered when Little Oni wasn't old enough to vote (as we all trooped in to do our civic duty).

Going to pick up an order at a Pizza Hut I worked at, and talking with the store manager about how much it has changed, and yet not changed.

Mentioning about their book it program (kids read books over the summer and get free pizzas), and then she remembers coming to get her book it pizzas as a kid. 

Probably around the time I worked there, if not later.

The Manager.

Oh, and the kicker that really makes me feel old?  Turning 50.

What still makes me feel old is having conversations with people who are old enough to drink now who were born AFTER Septebmer 11th.

Some of the newer slang that's out! Skibidi, rizzler, kizzy, etc. I know their meaning and they're cute, just makes me feel old!

Similarly classic rock stations now make me feel old. I think I’ll just refer to them as Dad rock stations now.

Hearing the 20-somethings at work complain that they're going to be blind, deaf, and in walkers.  (To be fair, two of them have significant sports-related injuries from football and gymnastics.)  I felt obligated to point out that 'I'm supposed to be the old lady back here. :D '
