sign of the times

If you ever want to feel old, just head to an outdoor concert surrounded by young 20 somethings getting wasted and drunk dancing all while feeling nostalgic for the days when you were that wasted, drunk dancing 20 something.  Last night I got the chance to see Mumford & Sons live.  And as much as I enjoyed the show, I kept catching myself thinking "man I wish I could just sit down" or "this would be perfect in a cute little coffee shop or something."  When do such old person sounding thoughts happen?  

So today's post is brought to you by... Signs you are getting wiser older: 

*you ask for things you need rather than things you want for Christmas or your birthday.  Ex: vacuum

*you don't drink that 3rd glass because you know tomorrow will be hell if you keep going.

*hangovers last until Wednesday. at the earliest. 

*you get motion sickness. in the front seat.

*you are a morning person

*when you get up past 8 and feel as your whole day is shot because you slept in. 

*all of your friends are having babies on purpose. 

*you think those girls walking around in tank tops and heals in the middle of winter without a jacket just look plain ridiculous. 

*you dress weather appropriate

*you need at least 8 hours of sleep. 

*you look forward to nights in, on the couch with a good book or movie while sipping on some wine or tea (if you are really old). 

*standing room only means a next day of lower back pain 

*you "just don't get kids these days."

Have you seen Mumford & Sons in concert before?

Does going to a show make you feel old?
What are other signs that you are getting older?

Mumford & Sons - "Sigh No More"

[insert caption here]

Well, it's Friday and you know what that means?  Last day of holiday in Topsail, NC (pronounced Topsuhl around these parts).  Since I am not really sure what I wanted to write I thought it would appropriate for my second Happies & Crappies. 

Happies: 

I have been on vacation all week * I have woken up every morning to the sun shining through our sliding door and to the sounds of the waves crashing the shore * I finally have myself a tan * laughed ourselves silly last over a game of Cards Against Humanity * Our last day is sunny * I am getting tattoo number 2 tonight * While I am sad vacation is ending, I am looking forward to our bed. * We will be coming home to a clean house. WOOT. 

Crappies:

*Today is our last day.  You know how they say that if you lived by the beach you wouldn't probably wouldn't go to the beach.  I am pretty I am not that person. * It is a 10 hour drive home. 

While I was doing my usual Instragram browsing routine this morning I stumbled upon this quote from Invisible Children and felt it to be appropriate for how I felt seeing the moonlight glowing across the Atlantic the other night.

If you follow me on Instagram you will have already seen this photo.  This time I used my favorite Word Swag app for the quote and Rhonna Designs app for the cute little designs.  What do you think?  Pretty good quote, huh? 

And since it is Friday, a good Friday post is not complete without #backthatazzup! 

 

What are your happies & crappies for the week?

What about your "can't put into words" moments?
