25 Signs that you’ve grown up
- Your potted plants are alive… and you can’t smoke any of them.
- Having sex in a twin-sized bed is absurd.
- You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
- 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to sleep.
- You hear your favourite song in an elevator.
- You carry an umbrella. You watch the Weather Channel.
- Your friends marry and divorce instead of hookup and breakup.
- You go from 130 days of vacation time to 7.
- Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as ‘dressed up.’
- You’re the one calling the police because those bloody kids next door don’t know how to turn down the stereo.
- Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.
- You don’t know what time McDonald’s closes anymore.
- Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up.
- You feed your dog Mydog instead of McDonald’s.
- Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
- You no longer take naps from noon to 6 p.m.
- Dinner and a movie - The whole date instead of the beginning of one.
- Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 a.m. would severely upset, rather than settle, your stomach.
- You go to the chemist for Ibuprofen and antacids, not condoms and pregnancy test kits.
- A $7.00 bottle of wine is no longer ‘pretty good stuff.’
- You actually eat breakfast foods at breakfast time.
- “I just can’t drink the way I used to,” replaces “I’m never going to drink that much again.”
- Over 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real work.
- You don’t drink at home to save money before going to a bar.
- You read this entire list looking for one sign that doesn’t apply to you.

Growing up happens between adolescence and adulthood, maturity happens between adulthood and old age. I’m in the later and loving it more than the growing up stage.

Growing up sucks. That is really when you realize that you have grown up. I will never grow up.
