matrimony, meatbags and morgages... oh my!

am i behind the times? i blame this useless knowledge that i have on the cesspool that we call facebook, but it looks like just about every other person i went to high school with is now betrothed, got a bun in the oven or is picking out kitchen patterns and wall colours...

it's not a bad thing... i just wonder if i missed a memo... i mean, at this point in my life i don't know where i might be next month, let alone can i afford to be snatching up property or booking a banquet hall... and i think what it really boils down to is the fact that i don't feel as though i desire any of these things -- at all... maybe not never, but certainly not now...

everyone has their own sense of happiness and, really, who am i to judge... but often times we harp on age so much like it's truly a marker for life's choices... who cares how old we are? we are entitled to our preferred lifestyle at our preferred pace... some end up taking it too fast... others idle waiting for the world to meet them halfway... and there are many who feel it deep down in their slimy guts that the time is now and live happily ever after... or something...

perhaps i'm just not good at making decisions... or maybe i'm just too satisfied with where i stand at this moment, that i'm too preoccupied to debate what lies ahead...
