pull down to refresh

Ngl I love my weekly dose of alcohol, unlike some Stackers who are clearly teetotallers, but I feel that booze age is a trivial thing to zero in on n flex about in the grand scheme of things.
I’m around his age and saddled with two children. I used to be a hardcore traveller, but actually I don’t miss my jet-setting lifestyle so much. What bugs me most about parenting is the sheer mundaneness of it all. Every day unfolds like the other, and the adrenaline-craving part of me just yearns for some free will to do random stuff just because I can
I do think that middle age brings with it a serene, even if begrudging, acceptance about life. I am at peace with my current situation in life, granted that I worked my way through a lot of existentialist angst in my 20s. Quarter-life crisis survivor. I wish that he could have explored this aspect instead of booze
The "I am at peace" thing is unbelievably important. Underappreciated somehow
