My quarter-life crisis

In "other world" news (aka the land where television characters live) this week, Miranda Bailey and I are going through the same sort of feelings concerning our jobs and lives

“I don’t want to work here anymore!  I don’t recognize this place anymore!  I have to make myself smaller to work here.  I don't know that I can look my son in the eye and tell him that's what I am doing.  I don’t want to wait until I can’t recognize myself anymore.”  -- Grey's Anatomy S9E15: "Hard Bargain"

I was discussing my upcoming plans -- or lack thereof -- with my coworkers the other night and one of them declared “you are not old enough for a mid-life crisis!” To which I laughed and declared I was having “a quarter-life crisis.”  Today I found out I’m not the creative genius I thought I was: someone else has already thought of this “quarter-life crisis!”  And he's fleshed it out much better than I.





(No worries, a post about my camping trip is coming in the days ahead!)
