And then it hit me!
Though this is not what I felt like blogging about tonight, it is something that I wanted to write about briefly, but just didn't have the time until now.
Ok, so I figured it out! I figured out how/why life feels so different from the way it used to be!!! And yes, perhaps this is a "no duh" kind of thing. I do wonder if it has ALWAYS been this obvious and apparent or what! So the big difference is...back in the day, the "fun" days of yore, we worked all day and after hours was our time to be social butterflies. After hours was the time when life happened!
In this day and age, our lives happen at work! After hours don't hold the same great meaning or fun that they once did. In essence, work has consumed all that we are! And I don't mean that in the weird "omg, there is no life aside from work life" way, I just mean that anymore, our work day is where our days happen.
Albeit, back in the day, it was nice to know that when work was done, the fun would begin. But everything happens at work---drama, romance, comedy, action, etc etc. No one has time to go out and get stupid on a work night anymore (I am trying to change my habit of that...but haven't really succeeded).
Oh well, I'm just excited that I finally figured it out! Go me. It only took like 5 years to come to a conclusion that was right in front of my nose the whole time. Perhaps it was an acceptance thing, and I have just now accepted it...
