This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

What? What?!?

Runs to e-mail.

ZOMG. I mean, not unexpected, but still.

What trappings define adulthood for you guys?

I suppose owning a house and paying for its upkeep *should* make me feel like an adult.

Going to a job that I often can't stand because if I didn't, we'd be out in the street.

Bingo. That would be it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This is really stupid, but I always feel like an adult when I'm traveling, and (a) get off the plane (/bus/whatever) in a place where I don't live, and make my own way to where I'm going, or (b) get off the plane (/bus/whatever) in the place where I do live, make my own way home, let myself in, get the mail, etc.

I think everyone in Natter should mail a spoon to Jesse

BUT THEN THEY WOULDN'T MATCH!!

Because it really is all about you.

Even if I really wish it wasn't?

Crap. I have to go use a pc, but it is in a room where there's some sort of meeting going on. And I have to do this today. Crap. Stupid benefits only working on microsoft ie.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

This is really stupid, but I always feel like an adult when I'm traveling, and (a) get off the plane (/bus/whatever) in a place where I don't live, and make my own way to where I'm going, or (b) get off the plane (/bus/whatever) in the place where I do live, make my own way home, let myself in, get the mail, etc.

That's a good one too.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Jesse, nothing matching is a valid design choice.

Arguing with AT&T about your cable bill. Voluntarily flipping your mattress. Eating cake for dinner because you can. Nobody taking care of your problems for you.

I like this definition. As a non-parent, non-homeowner with an apartment full of second-hand furniture I'm kind of lacking in much of the other stuff.
