    I got asked this question once, and I answered: either working here or going back to school. I graduated with my masters in 2024. But I appreciated that they got me thinking of my future realistically.

    If I were to ever be asked this again, I would go more abstract: so many things change on a day-to-day basis, that trying to realistically map out years at a time is not practical, but what I can say is that I am eager to learn, and I love exploring new opportunities for growth.

    They probably wouldn’t like that answer either, but at least it’d be honest and not fluff.



  • Old really is how you feel. I feel old now (48, going on 49), but only because of how my life turned out and certain events that I have to deal with (divorce, single fatherhood, getting colonoscopies, etc) by myself. I certainly don’t have as much fun as I used to, and that definitely plays a huge part in feeling old.

    All that to say that if your dad is having fun, “not acting his age”, then good for him! I hope he gets many more years of that before shit has to get serious.

    To directly answer your question: a 36-old is supposed to act however they want to (within moral reason of course), so long as they and the people around them are enjoying it.
