But I stand by my title.
I love that I'm not at school anymore. I think it's great that somewhere after I turned 18 I realised that I didn't have to be friends with other people my age. I found that I have things in common with people older or younger than me. I have equals who do not fit my demographic. I have respect from people who are both younger and older than me. This respect is based on their observations of and conversation with me. I don't feel constrained by a stereotype or image. I am a member of a massive club. We are The Grown Ups. We can do what ever we want to do. So if you are not a grown up yet hold on you will be one day soon. Then you too can stay up as late as you want to and eat a whole packet of lollies while you play on the computer because you bought them with your own money. Sure there are consequences but don't let them deter you from your chosen path. We can handle them because we are
The Grown Ups.

and i thought my kids ran my life!:)
i do like that time right after they have been put to bed and i can do something BY MYSELF. Unfortunately, no matter how late i stay up i cannot convince them to stay in bed the next morning.
But sometimes I wish there was a grown up looking after my bills/evening meals/discipline...grown up stuff.
You are so right. It is GREAT to be a grownup.
