I'm feeling really old tonight. I've been sitting here thinking about past summers- the family vacations we used to take when I was a kid, the late nights I spent with friends the summer after I graduated, and I've been comparing those times with this summer. Mostly I've been working, hardly seeing anybody (though I did have some nice mini-trips

I don't wanna grow up.

It's actually kind of scary. The more I grow up, the more I become like my dad (the Goodall curse of stubborn, "I know what's best for everyone" type thinking. We like to call it "effective problem-solving skills".)

But at the same time, you realize you have too. I can seriously say that I am really not interested in the same things I used to be, I've pretty much dropped most of the "friends" that tend to drag me down. I get *really* restless if I sit around doing nothing for too long--unlike before in high school when I could literally waste an entire day doing absolutely nothing and not feel like a worthless loaf.

But the thing is, I won't consider myself an adult until I have my own place that I can pay for myself and actually ave to pay bills and shit. Now THAT'S being an adult.
