Today we went to Lowes. I had a conversation with my sister about how I hope adulthood doesn't ever take over in me and she assured me that it would. I then began considering the slow degeneration. I think it would go something like this
Scene
Nathan, at 29 years of age, is walking into a Lowes with his lovely wife (haha). She wants to get some stuff for the house.
Nathan:
Let's hurry up, please.
Vanessa (let's call her that):
Calm down, I won't take too long.
Nathan:
You know how I hate this place...
Vanessa:
And I know how much you love me, right.
Nathan:
You're absolutly right, beautiful wife of mine (grumbles under breath).
Vanessa:
Besides, it's about time you took an interest in making our house look its best.
Nathan:
The day I do that is the day I know it's all over. I refuse to grow-
Oh, that's really pretty edging brick. That would look nice around the driveway in the front...
...oh no, NO.....NOOOOOOOOOO!
Vanessa:
See, I told you it was coming.
Nathan:
Noooooo!!!
Vanessa:
I could see it in your eyes when you were eyeing that bamboo fountain on the way in.
Nathan:
WHY? WHY!? Oh the HUMANITY!!!!
And that's pretty much how I think it would go. Hopefully I'll be smarter than that when the time comes. I still have a few good years left in me. Let's hope I make the best of them.
Oh yeah. Vanessa, if you're out there, I like pumpkin pie. Bake me one and things will probably go smoother for us.

You know, I'd like to say that's how it happened to me, but in truth, I've always liked Lowes...and brick edging
