    Update: Saw an orthopedic surgeon yesterday. They said i have hyperextended fingers, and looks like when my finger hit the wall, it moved up, and then the tendons and muscles froze in place. So mow my finger is locked.

    I've been prescribed a month of physical therapy, and if that doesn't work to get my finger bending again, I'll prob need surgery.

    Like...WTF?!?!?! lol. It wasn't even that bad a fall.

    Old. Old as ****.

    @Pensivia Valid as my brother is having his 40th reunion from grammar school this fall. Has he said now it's getting to the point where it isn't "who just had a kid" to "whose is now a grandparent!".

    @DarkGingerJedi Sorry to hear that! Hope it doesn't come to surgery though it does remind me of Jimmy Fallon and his injury at home falling that caused him to have a ten hour surgery on his ring finger:



    Getting your ring finger caught due to a wedding band is no joke though. One of our gym teachers lost part of his ring finger has he got it caught on the bleacher while retrieving a volleyball!

    Luckily I don't wear a ring on my ring finger. My wife and I just don't wear ours.

    Sorry to hear that @DarkGingerJedi . Take care of yourself during recovery!

    Ironically, you know you're getting old when someone can lowball your age by more than a decade :p

    Okay, so while on break my friend told me an athlete was retiring at 35. He said he was past his prime. I just turned 30 this year. You telling me in 5 years I'll be past my prime. (Not that I thought I was in my prime back then either)

    That was a great joke that got a big laugh in the theater. Those half phone booths were suddenly everywhere in the late 70's.

    Lunch with Richard Donner and my prof Tom Mankiewicz was an honor I'll never forget. Got to talk to them about this incredible film.

    I felt a much bigger decline start at 40, if that helps. At 40 my athleticism took a nosedive.

    I'm not athletic at all. I was just shock cause 35 seems so young to retire.

    One thing I hate about getting older is; my hair use to be bright blonde and now it is just dark, like a really dirty blonde. People don't believe that I'm a natural blonde. (They can't see my beard cause of my face mask)

    Now I have to highlight just to get it back to is natural color.

    There used to be a lot of people who were fifty years older than you are. And now there really aren't.

    I hate that my body starts to ache. My back is so sensitive, I can't even stretch like I used to (I pulled it a few weeks ago).

    ...when you feel nostalgic for the days when your biggest worry was pressing the stop button on your cassette recorder before the DJ started talking during the top 40.

    You know you feel old when you find something that has been missing for over a decade. I stumbled across the book on tape harrypotter I used to listen to when we would drive up to Canada. I did that for like 3-4 years. Honestly I have no clue how I didn’t get bored the second time

    ...when you realize that a co-worker, who's twenty years younger than you, had the same English teacher you had in your senior year of high school.
