How Many Of These Middle-Age Milestones Have You Hit?

5. You stay up watching the “important” scenes in Bridgerton until 9:37 p.m. and then say, “God, it’s almost midnight—I’m going to be paying for this for a week!”
6. You’re very honoured when your friend asks you to pick him up after his colonoscopy.
