All Right, Signs you are an adult? The quick lit
litmus test you can always tell. The sign that you
are a fishing adult is if you go. If you go,
you get really pissed that they've changed the layer of
your supermarket. That means you're a fishing adult. Nineteen twenty
(00:33):
miles would even care. They don't even know where it
was the forehand, the rest of us when we go
in there and oh my, what why wouldn't they do that?
Oh god, now, where where's the Mexican stuff?
Speaker 2 (00:46):
And why do they do it?
Speaker 1 (00:47):
Yeah, you're right? Why.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
I have a theory that.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
They do it so you get more lost, and maybe
you wander around and you grab stuff you don't need.
They're deliberately disorienting you like it.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
I introduce you to new friends, Yes exactly, I know
you like taco mix? Have you been to Italy? All right?
So the other thing is signs you an adult. You
actually have a sleep routine. You don't just go to bed.
The magnesium, the elthenine, the camramle t you have a
(01:19):
sleep routine. There was a period in your life where
you never worried about sleep. Being an adult is constantly
evaluating your sleep needs recovery. I've got the things that
ping me now every morning my bed tracks my sleep.
And guess what, Because I get up reasonably early, I
guess it's always going. That's just not enough.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
It's very dark.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
It's just missing me just now. You need to begin
your recovery right now. Well I can't. I'm my work.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
You shouldn't be up.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yes, but sleep, that's all we think about, talk about.
My whole algorithm knows me. It's various clips of people
on various podcasts who are sleep experts. Blackened out room,
have no light. There can't be a millimeters of light
in there. You'll never sleep for the rest of your lives.
There's any light there?
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Literally yesterday.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
I've just started doing a fourteen day deep rest course
on the waking up at to try to improve my sleep.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Yes, I'm still all I think about.
Speaker 1 (02:13):
When did this become so stressful to sleep?
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Yes, even when you're trying to get to sleep, you're
worrying about sleep.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Woke up at quarter to three this morning. Nothing willing
on my mind. Other than why am I weaight? Yeah?

Mortgag all the kids, we are okay, Mortgage, all right, real,

feels good, it's I think I feel like it actually
helps the movement. Yes, yeah, But then if you think
about it, you see the big You know when people
are doing the powerlifting at the Olympics, that's not silent.
They go that's their big effect. Our big effort now

one when was the last time we're trying to gut
of a bean bag? Tw of weeks ago? The kids
were lying on a bean bag and I'll come and
lie down there with you, and they were steady, old feller, steady,

Getting up. It's going to be hard. You gotta do
the side roll. Yeah, you're going to take a Niana happen.

there will be no talking while I'm trying to park.
I can't do two things at once. I can't listen
to any form of conversation. Answer questions, tell you where
this is or what's for dinner? If you're talking at me.

hand side. There must be no noise in the cart.
Nothing's right, same parking, all right? What are the signs

the long weekend, we cleaned out the fighting cabinet.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
People still have filing cabinet.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
That's the news.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
There, we've got one.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
What have you got in there? Just like a little
squad one. It's great.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
It's God all our insurance, our carbadge, oh, paid bills, minor.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Just somewhere in my No, that's chaos.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
No, you need to just search it when I need it. No, no,
you won't take you for Wait.
Speaker 3 (04:58):
So you've actually got your insurance details filing fighting cabinet?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Yes, do you need it?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
You surprised?
Speaker 1 (05:06):
And then it's all easy, not going through email.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Yeah, that's cract. I didn't even know they still existed.
Speaker 1 (05:12):
Hey, that sister, my friend has worked for decades, very
very very well. I like to have a hard copy
of it. Yeah, same like you see less and less
now though people it's only very old people that go
on a plane with the printed off ticket. When I'm
behind them, I go, oh, bless, you must be a
thousand years old. What was it like living in a cave?
(05:32):
So you see them unfolding it, you know it's always
been folded to four pieces.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
See.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
I still like a paper bill. Don't be emailing my
invoice and bills. You've seen it in sale mail, thank you?
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Now I'm the same. It gets lost in the box. Yes, wow,
it's easy to miss hard copy.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
That's wow, hard copy. Put it in my hand.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
This is a generational thing. We didn't grow up with that.
We grew up in a generation of hard copy, hard
times and hard copy.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
What do you do with the bill after you've put
it in the falling comet when it's paid?
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Yeah? I bet there's a lot of people right now
stall who still has the filing cabinet system, like Pats
and I the younger gen like Rio. You don't. You
didn't grab like that. We've been seeing our parents have
that filing cabinet ours. My wife has even got labels,
insurance like the medical things, even like the pet insurance,
all that kind of stuff. They've even got their own folder.
(06:26):
The pets have their own. Larry's got a passport.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
What did you have to get what?
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Larry the cat has got a passport? I think our
dog has as well. What really, he's some Queensland we've
got on during lockdown.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
And they have to have a passport.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yes, I think because he's so he could travel, open
up his original names in there, move faster where it
got his big name. But there's no photo of him.
It's like point of having a passport. Someone could steal
Larry's identity. They don't even need a head. Christian signs
an adult. When you go to a different, brand new
(07:03):
shopping center and you check out the map as soon
as you get to know where all the toilet locations are,
that's wrong, Linda, Natalie. Christian signs you an adult. You
do not bounce out bed anymore. You need to do
the safety roll one leg over, slowly, eat yourself up,
then sit for a moment. You identify what injury you
may have sustained during the nights. Christian signs you an adult.
(07:27):
Keeping track of how much hair you lose in the shower.
Was it more than yesterday? Was it surprisingly light? Was
it concerningly heavy? And why, Christian, we thought of you
the other day we're out for walk. We approached this
neighbor to ask who their fence guy was, because we
love their fencing so much on our morning walk. You
must give me that person's details. Who is your friends
(07:50):
and guy? Who did this? A beautiful bit of fencingness.
All right, Christian, I have a I have a filing cabinet.
Where does Rio keep his birth certificate and important papers?
Where are they?
Speaker 2 (08:02):
I'll tell you what they are in my mom's filing cabinet.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
Oh see, there you go, little Sonny.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Do they have digital birth certificates now? Or is it physical?
Speaker 1 (08:11):
You know you still need a physical one from actual
any procedure such as getting a mortgage or opening up
a bank account.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
A cirtificate to open a bank account.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Okay, you don't know how money laundering works. Okay, I'm
talking to a child. Well I'm a mad I've seen stuff.
You don't know how many bank accounts I've opened up, son,
but up moral bank accounts. You've had hot days? Maybe
your mummy opened your one eyes.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Excuse past book. You needed a passport, maybe a Medicare card.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
There you go in one of these forms of ID. Yeah,
where do you keep all your passports? I've got a
folder for that.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
You got to fold it?
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Yeah, yes, Now mind you see my top draw no.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
O, chaos, chaos, Christian, my husband sayst on having not one,
but two finding cabinets, all for different folders for different
things Christian as an adult before you wake up, make
sure everything is packed ready for what the night before.
I've been known to forget things to work. I always
have to double check before leaving home. Now, Christian, I'm thirty.
(09:15):
It's not just older people that like the paper ticket.
I like the hard copy.
