184 Days to 40

So, as the name of the blog--and the post--implies, in 184 days (or six months), I will be 40. On the one hand, I realize that nothing will actually change on November 1, but metaphorically I feel like if I haven't figured out how to be an adult by the time I'm 40, I really don't think I ever will. By writing here and trying to work through a lot of the issues/questions I have right now, I'm hoping that I'll greet November 1 with enthusiasm instead of a vague sense of disappointment in myself.
