Apparently...

Being an adult is like being a teenager. Who knew?

Now that I'm back out in the adult world, I feel more like a kid than ever. Late nights, talking, texting, spending hours on the phone - I can't remember when I seemed to need less sleep, and I'm still in a good mood every day. Add the occassional adult evening out, the glass of wine, or Sunday afternoon champagne, and I wonder what I was missing for all that time.

In fact, there was a very telling conversation at my office yesterday. I was in a good mood yesterday morning, but really didn't know why. A few ideas were tossed out as to why I was so happy, but no, I didn't get laid. Finally, one of the ladies I work with made a comment - and hit the nail on the head. She said, "You're having fun, right?"

That's why I was in such a strange mood - there hasn't been much fun in my life for the last several years.

Welcome back, fun, I missed you!

Cyndi Lauper said it right, " Girls Just Wanna Have Fun." This also happens to be my ring tone, just so that I'm constantly reminded of it! ;-)

Oh...fun is just so...FUN! It's horrible when it goes away because it slips away with the mundane everyday tasks of life...and when it pops up again...it's a welcome old friend. I love the feeling of not needing sleep to still live...unfortunately, I am needing more sleep than I thought was possible lately...

I want to trade it for some fun and giggles instead...
