You know you're an adult when you start making healthy choices. But you know you're truly an adult when your healthy choices (drumroll please) pay off. Wahey!

The Dictionary
Contains language You know you're an adult when you acquire random items.

It's Easter time (again) and you are tasked with buying your loved ones Easter eggs for the big day. Do you: (a) Stand in the chocolate aisle in the supermarket with every intention of buying treats for your family (but accidentally buy a load of crap for yourself) (b) Get so irate with Easter shoppers… Continue reading Crappy Easter
In the Club
You know you're an adult when the highlight of your week is going to the dentist. But you know you're truly an adult when you book your dentist appointment slap bang in the middle of the working day because you'd rather have your teeth pulled at than attend another pointless meeting. If, like me, you've… Continue reading In the Club
Tastes like strawberries
