So this weekend made me realize that I'm old
This weekend I realized I am no longer a spring chicken. I'm more of an clucking hen these days. 
We trekked into the city on friday after work and drank non-stop from 3pm-1:30am. We didn't get home until 3:30am. Slept in reasonably late on saturday but made another journey into brooklyn for a party and drank some more. I didn't even get out of my pajamas yesterday and I'm still exhausted. 
I miss the days where I only needed a few hours of sleep to recuperate only to wake up and get ready for another night of partying. I'm so mad at myself for being old.

Re: So this weekend made me realize that I'm old
i was just talking to an old college friend about that -- how we used to drink GALLONS and gallons and still make it to class on just 2 hrs of sleep and likely still drunk.
now -- i have a few glasses of wine and i'm starting to yawn and get tired.
ahhh the stamina of my late teens and early 20's seem soooooooo far away!

Re: So this weekend made me realize that I'm old
I can't even remember the last time I drank and got drunk. That's how old *I* am.
I used to ride overnights (11pm to 7am) at the ambulance corps, wake up out of a sound sleep to respond to alarms in the middle of the night, and be at work by 9 the next day.
That was a decade ago. I couldn't do it now.

Re: So this weekend made me realize that I'm old
OH yeah! People used to talk about it when I was younger and I was like- yeah right- that will never happen to me.
It is amazing what age does to you when it comes to drinking/partying and your stamina. SOOOO SAD!

omg people used to say this to me too, they would say things like just wait til your older you wont be able to pull all nighters anymore.
Now if i stay up late it kills my entire day
I used to stay out til 6am every nite of the week, and sleep a couple hours and then keep going.

Re: So this weekend made me realize that I'm old
Yup, 10pm'er here too. I get embarrassed telling people that because I do get laughed at.  What can I say? I'm also up at 5:45 each morning and at work at 6:45.

I wouldnt feel ashamed at all. I go to bed at 11pm and I dont get up until 8am
If I had to get up at 5:45, I would be in bed by 9pm latest!
