Out Of College
You know you've been out of college too long when...
Your potted plants stay alive.
You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to sleep.
You hear your favorite song on the elevator at work.
You carry an umbrella.
You watch the Weather Channel.
Your friends marry and divorce instead of hook up and break up.
You go from 130 days of vacation time to 14.
Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."
You're the one calling the police because those damn kids next
door don't know how to turn down the stereo.
Older relatives feel comfortable telling sex jokes around you.
You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.
Your car insurance goes down and your car payments go up.
You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald's.
Sleeping on the couch is a no-no.
You no longer take naps from noon to 6:00 PM.
Dinner and a movie - the whole date instead of the beginning of
one.
MTV News is no longer your primary source of information.
You go to the drugstore for ibuprofen and antacids, not condoms
and pregnancy test kits.
A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff."
You actually eat breakfast foods at breakfast time.
Grocery lists are longer than Macaroni & Cheese, Diet Pepsi, and
Ho-Hos.
"I just can't drink the way I used to" replaces "I'm never going
to drink that much again."
Over 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real
work.
You don't get liquored up at home to save money before going to a
bar.
