life experience... by Celeste
I'm 21. I can legally do pretty much everything. I can have sex. I can drink. I can gamble. I can vote. I can drive. I watch scary movies.
I'm a grown up.
I've moved away from my family. To a new town. In a new county.
I earn a wage. I pay my way. I pay bills. I pay rent. I fend for myself.
I am an adult.
So when I get ill I act in the grown up, dignified way of crying.
Yes my bottom lip trembles like a 50yr old alcoholic's hands, my face transforms from 'I am a sophisticated, classy, intelligent twenty something' to 'please take pity on me - I am an orphan', my eyes well with shiny 'near tears' and I want a cuddly pillow.
Sigh.

I got ill the other day and suddenly became Adult Baby Man; my super powers were not being able to make cups of tea and moaning from room to room. Thankfully PPQ helped me through and I changed back soon afterwards.
Being ill does very odd things to us all!
