A note on blogging: I get that it's cheesy, possibly narcissistic, and even TMI at times. But, for this opinionated wanna-be writer/socialite/political pundit/decorator who spends the majority of her time either in front of a computer or in the company of a baby with a 10 word vocabulary, it's an outlet. Don't judge...

"Girls"

I'm obsessed with the show "Girls" on HBO. It's definitely raunchy, but I love it. I feel like I can completely relate to the characters (especially the main character) and I think the show does an amazing job of portraying what it is like to be a young woman girl trying to figure herself out in today's world.

I just finished watching an episode and thought 'Yep, that about sums it up. Been there'. Then I turned off the TV (at 10:00pm), went to check on the kids, did one last straightening up of all the little things that my OCD requires are perfect (throw pillows, kitchen towels, coffee table position...), and then grabbed the laundry so I could have it folded and put away before I went to bed. And then it hit me. As much as the 25 year old inside of me desperately wants to relate (and pretend I'm still there), I am no longer a girl. I am a far cry from the wild, carefree person I was at 25.  It is a sad, yet true fact:

I'm a grown up!

When the hell did that happen?
