It's official

I'm a grown up.

Here are just some of the things that make it true.

1. I have a joint checking account with someone

2. My body hurts a lot more than it used to

3. I don't like fast food or cartoons anymore (well, not as much as I used to)

4. The weekends mean sweatpants and sleeping more instead of party clothes and staying out late.

5. I care about property taxes

6. I own furniture that I bought new

7. I have a guest room

8. My dog is older than the Titanic (the movie)

9. My niece is 16, has a job, and a nose ring.

10. I dye my hair to cover gray.
