Adulthood

Would you like to know the pivotal moment when I realized I was an adult?
I was in college, and every time I would sweep the floor, I would noticed the broom was getting dirtier and dirtier.  I kept wondering when was it going to go away, growing up the broom did not get like this.  Finally one day it clicked, my mom was never going to show up sweep my floor and clean out all the hair and lint from the bristles, that was my job now.  I must admit, I felt a little deflated after such a revelation.   Adulthood would not be everything I thought it would be...
Adulthood was not ushered in by a big party or celebration, it was cleaning a broom.
I'm pretty sure this is how I felt.
