8 AM is your idea of "sleeping in".

You don't remember when you got that mole or the one next to it.

You write thank you notes without being told.

Neighbors borrow your tools.

You answer a question with, "Because I said so!"

Others ask for your recipes.

You start Christmas shopping in August.

You paint your apartment walls for a reason other than getting your deposit back.

You don't like to drive after dark.

You say the words, "Turn that music down!"

You wear black socks with sandals.

You can live without sex but not without your glasses.

You point out what buildings used to be where.

You know all the warning signs of a heart attack.

You rake the yard without being told to.

You can't remember the last time you lay on the floor to watch television.

You and your teeth don’t sleep together.

You try to straighten out the wrinkles in your socks and discover you aren’t wearing any.

At the breakfast table you hear "snap, crackle, pop" and you’re not eating cereal.

Your back goes out but you stay home.

When you wake up looking like your driver’s license picture.
