Old

I’m too old…

…for all nighters. (But I could probably do it if it included a nap in the afternoon, a hot man and a Soy Chai Latte as the sun was rising.)

…for platform shoes.�

…for bars that have seating for 10% of the patrons.

…to play games with boys that are younger than me.

…to wear short skirts and low tops ALL AT THE SAME TIME. (Actually, I was always too old for that. And by old, I mean fat.)

…to not know how to change a tire.

…to make the same mistakes twice.

�

I’ll never be too old…

….to wear some sort of pink.

…to blow bubbles.

… to sleep in.

….for kissing in inappropriate places at inappropriate times.

…for Gossip Girl.

…to adore receiving birthday presents.

…to know better.

�

What are you too old for? And, on the other hand, �what do you think you will you never be too old for?

*Inspired by this week’s How I Met Your Mother and my fast approaching 28th birthday

When I was reading the first list, I thought to myself “I’m too old to wear pink”…and then it was on your second list! To be fair, I’ve always hated pink. Cute post!
I’ll never be too old to stand on the bar of the shopping cart and ride it to the shopping cart drop off place. Does that make sense?

i’ve become attached to HIMYM relatively quickly. my bf and i have finally caught up to this season, it only took us about a week and a half…

the last episode was hilarious and i was hoping barney would win!

i’ll never be too old to keep my hair longer than my shoulder(blades), get my ears pierced, like you said: kiss in inappropriate places at inappropriate times, wake up at noon, or travel.

i’m not ready to admit that i may be too old to do some things already, so i’m going to stop there :)

I’m too old to care but not too old to stop trying…

I’m 27, and I feel as though I’ll never be too old to wear platform shoes. I love all shoes, in all crazy shapes, and my feet need the window dressing – trust me.

I’m too old for casual dating. I can’t just indulge in flings anymore. I want a real relationship, something that will end up somewhere solid and real.

never too old to act like a kid.

too old to be surrounded by high school kids who think they’re the shit and so badass.

which causes me to roll my eyes internally. see: never too old to act like a kid :D

I’m too old for getting drunk and pretending to be sober in the morning. Perhaps its my old lady bags under my eyes. Sad.
