Congratulations, and welcome to the working-schlub world.

Thanks!
Yeah, now I have to start applying for actual full-time jobs.

If they let you. The moment I graduated, before I even headed off to Officer Development School, I was pressured to provide a grandniece or nephew. Run while you can.

That wouldn't be so bad. But my mom is definitely pressuring me to find a man, and I'm like, the good ones are either taken or don't like me or haven't shown up yet. Not much I can do about that. I think she thinks it's because I'm too.... not-open when it comes to guys. Which is true, but I also haven't found, you know, a young single Christian man that I am attracted to. It's a curious thing.

Alas, young, single, Christian men are hard to find. It's like you can get two out of three (for instance, I'm single and Christian, but not so young anymore). I think it's a generational thing. Christ isn't invited to the table anymore.

Then we'll MAKE HIM A TABLE.
And by young I mean in their 20s. I don't think younger than me (23) would work, and any older than 30 would be a little too big a gap. Not that I wouldn't make an exception for, say, Tom Hiddleston, but okay.

Personally, I don't think guys under thirty should even be allowed to date. They're a bit... strange.

[aurora_requiem]

Truly they are.
