– household chores become enjoyable
– one of the activities you fantasize about doing in bed is sleeping
– when you see people gossiping about you, you can’t be bothered to wonder why
– when you say “no” to a request, you feel no need to offer an excuse or an explanation
– late nights have consequences
– characters in favorite movies suddenly begin to look very young
– it feels weird when strangers or young people address you by your first name
– the number of things you feel like you have to when you don’t want to do dramatically diminishes
– embarrassment becomes a long-forgotten experience
– young people start asking you for advice about their love lives
I experienced all this since last week, and I know feel thoroughly middle-aged.
