It Was A Good Run: 60 Signs Your Party Girl Life Is Ending

by Elite Daily Staff

Making the rounds on the party circuit comes with an expiration date.

After countless rounds at the gilded bars, sore feet from ridiculous heels, and a reshuffling of priorities (cough quality time with "American Horror Story" cough), you've reached your threshold of Sam Smith remixes and well vodka.

We can no longer pretend to ignore the signs that our party girl lives are ending. Yes, this important chapter in our lives (you owe your confidence to many morning-afters strutting in aggressive clubwear, after all) is slowly winding down.

But that doesn't mean we'll miss waking up in vats of hummus and crushed pretzels.

Welcome to the (non) club! Here are the 60 signs your party girl life is ending:

1. You don’t have any recently tagged Facebook pictures.

2. You feel weird when your dress is too short.

3. You only go out when there’s a birthday or special occasion... not just because it’s Friday.

4. You can no longer take a shot without a chaser.

5. You're sick of not remembering everything.

6. Your voice is permanently raspy, and you’ve had enough calling home and your sister greeting you with, "Hey, Dad!"

9. You don’t consider “Dancing like no one's watching” a real form of exercise anymore.

11. You’re productive during the weekends.

12. You’ve gone more than three months without breaking your phone.

13. You forgot how to twerk. (Psh, girlfriend. NEVAAAA!)

14. You only want to go out to places where you can wear your pajamas.

15. You are now retelling your old stories from The Archives because you have no new ones.

16. You get drunk off two drinks now! For the girl who used to wear green pants and flash everyone from five-story rooftops, whoever thought this day would come?

17. You’ve recently found this thing called “good judgment.”

18. You never coat check because you know you aren't staying that long.

20. Your clothes are ruined from being spilled on, including the ones you wear to work.

21. Your taste in music has gotten significantly better. (AKA outside of electronic super galactic martian music.)
