Being an adult is an aquired taste

I would rather drink root beer than anything else with beer in the name. I have bubblegum mouthwash because the mint is too minty. I would rather go roller skating than go to  a club. I shop in the Junior's clothing section. I'm a little too hopped up on sugar most of the time. I don't like to tell people I meet how old I am because I think I can pass for a good five years younger but I think, this week I may have developed my first adult taste buds.
I was watching one of my favorite shows, not to name names or anything, but it is a show about teenagers being played by people my age. How much longer are these people going to be in high school anyway? I mean these shows act like it is normal to be in high school when really- it's not! Very, very young people aren't even in high school anymore let's move on! But anyway, I found myself getting bored. Like so bored I needed to play a computer game while I was watching the episode- on my computer. Which meant I had to go to another window, so I was just listening to it without the visual. Pretty soon I had muted it. I was in the middle of the episode and I didn't even care what happened next. The entire plot of the episode circled around this girl who gave another girl the stink eye in English class or something, and btw, what's up with every high school show showing the students sitting in their chairs listening to their teacher up until the bell rings? We never did that when I was in high school, 5 minutes till the end of class everyone had their backpacks on and was standing by the door waiting to go, but anyway. That's not the point- the point was high school is boring! There I said it. I enjoy watching a show about grown up drug dealers my friend showed to me. I enjoy a show with grown @$$ adult characters more than one about high schoolers! I am soo grown up! 
The other day at work I was walking by the grown women's section and I saw a shirt I actually wanted. I was so proud if myself but then I saw the price tag. Wow, it's expensive being an adult. I need to get a real grown up job one of these days.
I'm still going to like Hello Kitty though.
