I graduated from that

Last night I met my sister and some of my first cousins for dinner. We saw one another often as kids but not so much now that we're grown up. One of the cousins reminded me of one of many big reasons we don't get together more often.

He's married with three kids in the 'burbs and was chatting with another cousin who's single and lives in the city and my asshole brother-in-law. They were talking about an area of the city popular for night life.

"There's always a party there." my single cousin said.

"I've graduated from that," the married one responded.

"I don't think you ever graduate from that," My brother-in-law said.

My sister's husband surprised me with something I agreed with. First time in years. The married cousin from the 'burbs and his wife were sipping on margaritas during dinner. And what's different about that or having a beer in the driveway while watching kids play in the street like they do so much around here?

It's all partying just in a different location. And the day someone graduates from having fun is a sad day.

Love to the single girls,
Addison
