sometimes i don't like being an adult...

...like when i become suddenly aware that i need to grow up and take care of things on my own. today's unwanted adult moment was finding mouse droppings in the drawer below my stove and on the windowsill in my living room and chewed up bags of food in my pantry.
realization: i don't have my dad here to set traps.
realization: i don't have my dad here to clean up the remains.
realization: i have to do things on my own.

reaction: tears.

yeah, i'm not quite so sure i want to grow up just yet.  i think i'll go have 5 guys for dinner.
