Adulthood is the new junior high/Steve's birthday
Remember junior high? A bunch of kids prentending to be cooler and more sophisticated than they really were, talking about how they were adults now and how rough their lives were? Then in high school it slowly started to fade, and by college most people had dropped the whole facade and were happy just being themselves. I, for one, was relieved that I'd never have to re-live the whole junior high experience.But I'm finding the real world, the working world, the adult world is a lot more like junior high than college. I'm sick of people driving around in their BMWs and Escalades with their STUPID blue tooth ear pieces on, sipping on Starbucks and acting like they're better than everyone else. I'm also tired of hearing about how hard everyone's job is. It's a job, it's work. I understand that you're busy because that's what work is. Everyone who has a job is probably a similar amount of busy, so it's not worth talking about.
Also, everyone has lost their sense of humor. Since adults are too sophisticated to laugh at "your mom" jokes or dare each other to lick a toilet seat, all that's left to talk about is the weather and how busy we all are. I really hate it. Really really really.
For Steve's birthday we're spending a weekend in Sedona and going to Out of Africa to see lions and tigers and bears (oh my!). Not as good as a real African safari, but it is the best Arizona has to offer. Also, we're going on Sunday which is a feeding day.
"Follow our animal caretakers on a PREDATOR FEED as they throw 800 pounds of raw food to anxiously awaiting carnivores. This is an opportunity to see how large animals, such as lions and tigers, eat."
Now that's a good time!
