What are the signs you've noticed that you're getting older?
-
Yeah I felt I dated myself by talking about listening to the radio. I don't know if this is of any help to you: I started taking guitar lessons at 50 and although I may never perform publicy, I enjoy just playing alone or with a few jam buddies. Around the same time I started going to punk shows again and after a little time made friends with some of the regulars (just like old times). Covid and inflation derailed that but I still make it out a few times a year. We all have our own personal obstacles though

When i was young i could sleep on a staircase and walk off next day as if nothing happened.
But now i sleep on pillow with slight angle and the next day is hell with neck and mid back pain.
Also alcohol tolerance reduced

Every fart is a gamble

Gray pube.

Yeah. It feels like the brain processes memories and their durations in relation to experienced total. When you are 5, one year is 20% of your life and feel like eternity. When you are 50 it's 2% of your life and goes by pretty quick.

I feel like this is not a part of getting older. Arent there things that are exiting to you or make you happy?
-
Not many. Not as much as it used to be

I thought you're gonna say a dad joke so I will!
At least you didn't have a Winter
-
Well that took me a minute - oh, autumn, you're talking about autumn! Ha ha, excellent dad joke.

I feel both of these. I'm 40 and yeah, sleeping slightly weirdly I get shoulder pain the next day. Working out regularly has definitely helped things. Also for alcohol, I have to be careful to also include non-alcoholic drinks in an evening, say a non-alcoholic beer or something before the real thing.
