I’m 30-Something And Still Waiting To Feel Like A Real Adult
I was born 30-something years ago. I have childbearing hips, fine lines on my face, and gray strands in my hair .
I pay taxes. I have a mortgage. I have a job and bills and clip coupons and make doctor’s appointments and gripe about current events and my back hurting. I carry ibuprofen in my purse.The problem is, I’m still waiting toI waited for it when I moved into my first apartment. When I bought my first car.When I became a wife. When I became a mother. When I became a homeowner.I’ll wake up and feel like I’ve certifiably got my shit together, like I’m finally worthy of being taken seriously.
Maybe it’s because I’m a 30-something woman who still runs at top speed up the basement stairs when I turn the light off.Maybe it’s because I close my bathroom door and practice twerking in the mirror or eat ice cream for breakfast after my kids go to school. The years are going by, ever so quickly — heaven knows I’m not getting any younger — and I’m making it through life. But I’m doing it in a bumbling sort of way, not at all as the self-assured adult I always envisioned I’d be.
