Adulting

So, as most of you know, I have had a lot of changes come my way in the last month or so. I packed my things and moved to OKC where I work in guest services at Whole Foods Market and substitute teach English as a second language at OCU. Real adult stuff. It's been so crazy. It's been hard for me to collect my thoughts enough to write a good blog post. My brain goes 100 miles an hour. And then it hit me. Why don't I write a post outlining all of my new adult thoughts? So here are some of my thoughts the past month.

Do I get paid this week or next?

If I do nothing but watch Netflix all day on my day off, no one will know...

Seriously? How did I let all of that chicken go bad?

I'm going to save money by buying the cheap one ply toilet paper!

I now understand why people have trash cans with lids in their kitchens...

I'm having stress dreams about bagging people's groceries at Whole Foods.

WASPS ARE BUILDING A NEST IN MY DOOR FRAME!!

I don't own business professional clothing.

One ply toilet paper is the worst.

I should probably stop eating pizza every other meal.

Can I eat the part of the apple that isn't moldy?

Why are vitamins so expensive?

I should go on a sugar detox. Adults love sugar detoxes.

How do I get dog pee out of a leather couch?

Why is there hair EVERYWHERE?

I am literally the same age as my students. How am I going to be an authority figure to them?

How can one human accumulate so many dirty dishes in two days?

WHY ARE WASPS SO OBSESSED WITH ME?!

Why do I relate so much to Kimmy Schmidt from Unbreakable and I haven't been living underground for fifteen years?

As you can see, adulting is a bit hard for me at times. Hopefully I'm not the only person who has had these thoughts and problems. Growing up is a serious learning process. But it's also fun too! Because when you're an adult, you can eat all the ice cream you want. Except of course, if you're on a sugar detox like I am.

Cheers to adulting!

If you are wondering about the term "adulting", I took it from one of my favorite books entitled "Adulting: How to Become a Grown-Up in 468 Easy(ish) Steps by Kelly Williams Brown. It's a must read for all you people going through a quarter life crisis.
