You're asleep, but others worry that you're dead.

You can live without sex, but not without glasses.

Your back goes out more than you do.

You quit trying to hold your stomach in, no matter who walks into the room.

You buy a compass for the dash of your car.

You are proud of your lawn mower.

You would rather go to work than stay home sick.

You constantly talk about the price of gasoline.

Never - I've always loved my job too much! If you don't like what you do for 40+ hours/week, change it!

You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.

If this ever happens to me, please put me out to pasture, or take me out back and shoot me! My parents used to shake their heads because I gave directions by minutes traveled, not distance (especially for highway travel), and when they figured out exactly how fast I had to be going in order to use those minutes figures they wondered why I didn't have more speeding tickets... :Whistle (Nobody notices a white 4 door Pontiac sedan zipping along!)

You enjoy hearing about other people's operations.

Is this kind of like the Mom's who can't stop sharing baby BM stories?! lol

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

The truth is incontrovertible. Malice may attack it. ignorance may deride it, but in the end, there it is. ~Winston Churchill
