How to Know You are Getting Older....

[Fred_G]

So, I go to a buddy's house, we go shooting, come home, open a beer and sit by the pool. A bit of talk about holsters and such, then we start talking about the best pain relieving creams... And I catch myself... Damn, I need to get an ice pack like that.



Beats the alternative I guess.

When your barber spends more time trimming your ear hair than your head...

 

[Bender]

When you're getting your hair ciput and she asks if you would like your eyebrows trimmed.

When you NO LONGER need to get a haircut!!!

When you NO LONGER need to get a haircut!!!

How 'bout when the barber charges a finders fee for your head, and extra for the ear and nose hair!

 

[Babboonbobo]

It takes you a full 5 minutes to get out of bed accompanied by a symphony of creaking and cracking!

And uncle once told me, ".....after 40, never trust a fart."

I trim my beard with a #1 guard once a week to keep it in control.
...and shave my ears the same day.

When your newest "Guardian" looks like this . . . .

Yeah, the whole ear hair thing pisses me off. Like I NEED hair there.

My brother's hair succumbed to gravity. It moved from his head to his back.....

I recall my grandmother, a mean, bitter, dried up, prunish kind of woman that had been a schoolteacher for 50 years. I was dutifully visiting, doing chores around the house that other cousins would not or could not do, I wiped the sweat from my head with a kerchief. She remarked caustically, 'I noticed your forehead was getting kind of long'. Now I understand why my grandfather started his day with coffee and bourbon, and ended his day with bourbon and coffee.

Dunno, I would probably be the same if I spent half a century around OPK . . . other people's kids . . . .

When the doctor tells you it's not arthritis, but early onset rigor mortis . . . .

 

[ZoidMeister]

When you actually sit around contemplating, "What's the difference between an Old Fart and a New Fart" . . . .

 

[boatdoc]

when you go into a room and cannot remember why--several times for the same thing=SOMEtimers--sometimes I remember ,some times I DON't

when all your mail and email is for braces for your limbs,diapers, ED meds...

when you ache from your head to your toes...

When you nose hair grows faster then your facial hair.


Maybe that's just me and I can use it to full in my sparse mustache.

I've got more grey in my beard than my actual hair color. Getting my haircut yesterday, the guy who's been cutting it for the past ~10 years looks at the top of my head and asks how old I am. Thinking he was looking at my rapidly thinning crown I said "46, why?"

"You have grey up here"

"Well, it'll finally start matching my beard then."

I'm just happy to have enough hair to go grey...

Better for it to turn grey, than turn loose.
