I spent the past weekend in Vegas with my husband and some of my good friends. Although we had a fantastic time, I noticed a few changes from the Vegas of my early and mid twenties.
I present to you:
The Top 5 Signs You Are Getting Old(er) – The Sin City Edition
- The Casino employees stop having to verify your ID card’s authenticity with their supervisor. In fact, they stop carding you alltogether.
- During the cab ride, you don’t bother asking which casinos have the best mile-high margaritas or which after-hours clubs are the most happening. Instead, you discuss with your cabbie the merits of renting versus buying a home in the current economic market.
- You contemplate ordering “Water for Elephants” from the hotel TV on a Saturday night.
- After an entire weekend of gambling and pool partying and dinner and drinks you only have 3 photos on your camera. And they are all of Vanilla Ice.
- You come very, very, close to stomping over to your neighbor’s hotel room door at 2:00 AM on a Friday night, banging on it until the music and the screaming/drunken giggling pauses, and yelling, “WILL YOU KIDS KEEP IT DOWN OVER THERE? SOME OF US ARE TRYING TO SLEEP!”
