Grown Up?

August 16th, 2006

Yesterday my friend Chad saw me wearing my Crocs, and he said, “Garden shoes! You’re such a grown-up. You probably have wheeled luggage, too.”

Duh.

So I was wondering, what do YOU think is the sure, visible sign of a “grown-up?” Thoughts?

    I always think of Crocs as little kid shoes because the first time I saw them was on my niece and nephew! But being a grown up? I let you know when I get there!

    When farts aren’t funny anymore.

    Speaking of Crocs, I saw a guy wearing them the other day. He had hair pants and I thought, “Steve.”

    HMMM, that’s a good question….ummmmm..Grownups use turn signals? Grownups say “I’m sorry” instead of “Sorry”. Grown-ups don’t know what the word “DUMB” really means.

    When you can’t say “poopie” anymore. Geez, I don’t think I will ever grow up.

    Well, there’s the first time someone else thinks you’re a grown up: when you get called “M’am” for the first time (above the Mason Dixon anyway)….

    …or the first time you hear yourself bitching about gas prices to a stranger at the pump….

    …or the day you say “oh, cool” when Tums are 2-for-1….

    Grown-up, is when you turn 31 and Daddy can not take you out on your birthday to your favorite restaraunt. You always wanted some fast food joint. I wnated to take you to La Mont.
