Marriage Or Career Dont Ask Me.
Marriage Or Career Dont Ask Me. Pop Quiz: Does dear Aunt Mitzi ask about your career or marriage first? Fair warning: If we havent seen each other in a while and you cant think of a single thing to talk to me about that isnt when are you gonna get married?, then I reserve the right to throw balled up paper napkins at you until you go away. At this point, if you want to start a conversation with me about when Im going to start my marriage or career, it had best be because you are about to either hire me or propose. Pop Quiz: Does dear Aunt Mitzi ask about your career or marriage first? Gather round, kiddies, and let me tell you a story about the last time I visited home. I was picking up my niece from her babysitters house, a friend of the family who has known me since I was collecting Pokemon cards. As were waiting for the little cherub to find her shoes and finish her I-duwanna-go!! temper tantrum, the neighbor inquires whether my boyfriend of two years has yet to, as Bey would say, put a ring on it. Lets be clear here. In the past year, I have: Moved from my hometown of 6K inhabitants to the city of Philadelphia Interviewed for and landed my first full time salaried position Had my first blog post published online Interviewed a respected industry professional Got a raise Signed a lease for my first for-realsies adult apartment Beat Dantes Inferno on Zealot mode (Hardest. Boss Battle. Of my life. Just saying.) Paid down $2K of my student loans Accumulated more money in my savings account than I made the first year that I worked. Of all these great topics, dear reader, what did this person want to talk about? Whether or not I had caught me a man yet. Welp.
