About 'Getting to the Pt'

It seems like the hip thing to do these days - for the youths - to start up a blog. You see descriptors like "twenty-something trying to figure it all out" or "twenty-something trying to make my way in the world." There are a lot of twenties doing a lot of somethings.

So what happens to the twenty-something when they become a thirty-something? Do they disappear? Or get shipped off to some island of misfit toys, never to be seen again? Do they lose that spunky glow? Does the "cool" aura of whimsical uncertainty turn into a less cutesy "why don't you have your shit together" and "you're old enough to know better"?

I started this wee bloggy back in April of 2015, during that awkward grey area. During that graceless metamorphosis of my late roaring twenties. Busy scooping up adult points, I was certainly not old enough to know better, and was perfectly content as such. Living some version of "the dream" in the big city, I was just a small town girl with a tale or two to tell.

Look at me, I'm an adult...and things! Yay!
(Spoiler alert: I blessed the rains down in Africa, it was me, you're welcome)

So where are we at now? Well, this blog still won't teach you how to bake the perfect cake, or inspire you to be the trendiest gal in the office; but, with any luck, it'll bring a smile to your face or make you have a good think. Whether you're a twenty-something, or in the void, or are looking back from the "older and wiser" years ahead (you're living in that light at the end of the tunnel, you lucky duck, you!), I think we all can agree: the human condition can be a funny mess. May as well embrace the chaos and appreciate the little quirks as we go.

See you all on the other side.
Cheers,
Gina
