The Difference in Being 22 and 28....

For the past 4 years, I have been the ripe age of 23.  It's the best age anyone can be, until you're actually not it anymore.  You realize that you're going to bed before 9, you have one drink and are wasted, and can't even imagine going out on a week night; you realize, "Oh My God!  I'm in my late 20's"!!  This is a tough thing to realize.  To help all of America with this realization I'm outlined some tips to help you spot that you are not longer in your early 20's:
-You wear a coat to the bar, while all the youngens run jacket-less in the freezing cold.
-You need more than a few hours to recover from a hangover (like a good 2 days)
-You can't puke and rally
-You wear clothes to the bar when you use to go out in bascially nothing
-You've gained a few extra pounds (Not that many just like 5)
-You can't make out with someone random on the dance floor
-You have a real job (that you have to go to not hungover)
-You cannot go out all night, not sleep and go to work
-Once you are drunk, you can't stay up and chat all night, you pass out (well before the sun rises)
-You wear a cover up on the beach, instead of just walking around in your bikini
-You go out at 9 when you use to not even get ready until 11
-You have a savings account
-The shows that come on passed 10pm, need to be DVR'ed because you can't keep your eyes open that long
-You don't mix vodka with water thinking it will keep you hydrated!!  (you have learned your lesson)
-You're happy wearing flats and not 6 inchers
-Your Halloween costume consists of more than booty shorts and pasties
-21yr olds annoy you
-People think you're old

I had to learn this the hard way.  It's not easy realizing your nearing death any day now, but I guess we all have to grow up sometime.  I hope I have helped those of you reading this....it's ok to get older, just never turn 30!
