Mommy wow...

I will be showing up in another newspaper this week, albeit the decidedly less well-known Sierra Vista Herald. Still, press is press. Haha.

This morning found me getting off the phone with a friend so that I could "strongly speak with" (read: lecture) an actual adult. You know, the kind with a mortgage and kids and stuff like that.

And then later today I ended up in a meeting, a business meeting, with a minister who knows my mom.

My life, as ever, is extremely weird.

All of this to say, I think I might actually be turning into an adult. The first year out of college you really feel like a fraud. You know that you don't go to class or eat at the dining hall, but you also haven't really proven anything. When people treat you like an adult you begin to think, "I don't actually know what I'm doing here...you probably want to ask someone else." But people keep asking you to do things. And you keep doing them. And slowly you find that you are useful and competent and responsible. More or less.

Days like today make you realize that, while not there yet, you're a lot closer than you used to be.

And strangely enough, that you like it.




I still listen to Mxpx and like my skateboard more than my car though.

Think of this as the teaser blog to a "The Quarter Life: Career" post. Coming soon to an internet near you.



The blog title was too much, wasn't it? Like I said, not grown up yet...
