Anarchy and Anachronism Otherwise Known As Turning 30

I decided on creating a new blog after I realized that my old one has been left stagnant and irrelevant. I think it's also timely now that I've turned 30. Yep you just wake up one morning and realize that you have been living in your parent's house for 30 damn long years, doing nothing but get wasted every night, bum around playing video games, or pester everyone with really loud industrial rock music. Talk about failure to launch! But enough of that. What's the big deal about getting another decade into your age anyway? Well a lot apparently. For one thing, you're past your 20s meaning you're no longer a young adult although you still feel like partying like one. Second, you're not yet 40 so you really can't be called an adult waiting for that precious mid-life crisis. So where does that leave you?

30s is limbo, it's neither this or that, neither here nor there. You still feel rebelious, immature, insecure, and in total denial, hence the Anarchy part. At the same time you also feel detached, obselete, out-of-sync, and dysfunctional when dealing with the new fads, fashions, and trends of the newer generation. You no longer appreciate the new music and instead burrow back to your 80s and 90s music collection. Sad, I know, but probably true to most of us. Thats' where the Anachrinism part comes in. You see, instead of looking at it in a negative way, I'd rather explore this new territory and see where it leads. Hey maybe being 30 is the new 20s. Or maybe I'm still depressed and in denial...
