I sleep at 3-4 AM most of the time, sometimes 1 if I'm tired...and get up at 8.
Guess I'm not old.
Oh wait...18..heh
But nah, the reason you got tired is because you probably weren't used to it. Although if you're over 40, you're slowly starting to get old, differs on how well you kept your body when you were younger I guess.
Biological age is what matters, not the ''official'' age.

Until then you can't be old.
And I need my 12 hours of sleep so going early to bed shouldn't be a big issue.;)
What Joe said.
That being said, I'm a bit like a cat.
If I don't have anything better to do, I go and check my eyelids for holes.
Also, as soon as I hit 40, my eyesight started to go.
At 46 I'm almost at the point where I'm going to have to wear glasses to see for any sort of reasonable distance.

Having been in glasses since I was five years old - and also having had corrective surgery for a lazy eye and NOT having binocular vision (3D, what's that?) - that's something I can't relate to. Course, now I wear bifocals, although when I'm reading I tend to simply look over my glasses and read with my left eye, and if I need to see far away I use my right eye. (20/500 or so in the left, 20/40 in the rightt.)
40 does seem to be the magic age - the night I had my 40th birthday party, my knees started making this clicking noise when I was climbing the stairs. 3 years after that I was having surgery to have my kneecaps put back where they belong.

Agmen you sound older then your years. I bet its the kids aging you faster right?
As for glasses? I need to wear mine to read and drive acording to the city. So what if i cannot see that kid infront of my truck...ere...um..Ok maybe that is a good reason for them, but them young wipper snappers should not be on the road right?
Someone once told me that old is 10 years older than your current age, and young is 10 years younger than your current age. Seems to hold true. At 20, 30 seemed like it was pretty old to me, but having just turned 43 this week I can honestly say I feel young and full of life. I have older friends that refer to me as still a "young man" and they assure me that I'll see life differently when I get a bit older.
Like most things, "old" seems to be a matter of perspective.
