You know that you have reached adulthood when:
New pants are more exciting than a new movie
You enjoy doing laundry
Surviving another day is a major highlight
New furniture is exciting
You do the unpleasant without remark as a matter of habit
You can accept that there are some things you may never achieve
You can take one day at a time
You stop complaining because you are the one who makes things happen in your life
(for men) you love your shoes for their function over their looks
You can accept the fleeting nature of happiness, and take each crisis as it comes
All these things or at least some of these things are signs you are a fully functional adult. I realize there are probably more. I also realize that there are many physically mature people who will never mature mentally.
