I just realized that as an adult, my idea of a wild night is now just finishing my chores and getting to bed by 10 PM. Like, what happened to those nights when I’d party until dawn? Now I get excited when I find a new laundry detergent. Is this what growing up looks like or have I just accepted defeat? I mean, if I don’t celebrate the triumph of a clean house with a glass of wine, did I even live?

I just started reading self-help books to figure out why my life feels like a sitcom without a laugh track, and honestly, it feels like an extreme sport.
