Just looked up the ages of the most recent cast... Yep, we're adults! </p> <p>I really knew I was an adult when I started asking my younger cousins what they were learning about in their classes. When I was little, I would be so annoyed when adults asked me about school. Now, I'm that old weirdo who is genuinely interested in what a 10 year old is studying in math class. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-know-youre-an-adult-when#post-673165 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 10:44:43 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 673165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Service providers address you as Mrs. L</p> <p>Stock the fridge *and* the pantry </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-know-youre-an-adult-when#post-673091 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 10:30:37 +0000 MrsTiz 673091@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>for Christmas or birthdays your wish lists are filled with stuff for the house.</p> <p>you get excited about new curtains</p> <p>any money that is given as a gift goes straight to bills </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-know-youre-an-adult-when#post-673040 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 10:18:48 +0000 MrsHotDog 673040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When your wish list includes only things for your kids and stuff for the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-know-youre-an-adult-when#post-672988 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 10:06:24 +0000 swurlygurl 672988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>...going to bed at 9pm is the best thing to happen to you all week</p> <p>...you prefer to hang out and drink at home with friends instead of going to a bar</p> <p>...you're super excited about a sale on the new appliances you've been wanting </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/you-know-youre-an-adult-when#post-672961 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 10:02:01 +0000 Dandelion 672961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When you get excited over things like a new dryer.
