Reasons I know I am an Adult

I've had a little pep in my step the past few days. Partially because my horoscope for June is particularly awesome (and after the May I had, I'd like to believe that to be true), and partially because I have a lot going on. However, when I discuss with my friends what exactly is going on in my life....I realize....I am an adult.

Let me give you some examples...

•  I am moving next week into a new apartment. I was originally going to be moving in with my friend Samantha, but due to some unforeseen circumstances, I am now moving into a one bedroom. I'm pretty excited for the following reasons:
•  My shower is a standup shower, and it has two shower heads with separate temperature valves. I know you're thinking what I'm thinking.....WATERFALL DANCE PARTY FOR ONE! 
•  I got all new dishes for my new place. My current dishes I got when I was 20 from Big Lots. I think 7 years is pretty good for Big Lots plates, but it's time to move on to less colorful things. Sadly, I keep taking the plates out of the box and just looking at them lovingly like, "man, I can't wait to eat off you and then put you in the dishwasher!"
• I went to Michaels and bought a vase, and some flowers and I am so excited about the arrangement I made.
• I also purchased new pots/pans to actually cook with. Yes, that's right, I plan on actually cooking and learning new recipes. 
• I have been overly excited about my part-time job, because it will make me money, and since I will work either Friday or Saturday nights, it will save me money, calories, and hangovers. WHO AM I?!
• I walked into work today and had a smile on my face because it's "ROUND ONE OF MEETINGS" for my recruits. The passion I put into my job lately has started to scare me
• I wave at random people when I go for runs. Yes, I know it's polite, but I've just never been that person, and now apparently I am?
• My birthday party this year consists of going to a water park with all my friends, not drinking myself into a black out oblivion (not that water parks are overly adult, but still)
• I actually uttered the words "I need to stop drinking so much" this week...and meant it
• Two weeks from today I'm having surgery, and aside from the mandatory first 24 hours with someone else, I plan on taking complete care of myself (and also laying by the pool hopped up on pain meds)
• Speaking of pools, I diligently apply sunscreen. And reapply. 

Basically, I'm going to be 27 in July and I can feel it. I feel it from my budget to the voice in my head screaming "this music is TOO loud for a clothing store!"

I will say, though, that there is SOME kid left in me, because I'm excited I get to pick the color of my cast after surgery. It will be pink.
