Is Adulting a scam?

I’m on coronavirus quarantine, in deep REM sleep, sweating my past off and now I know that it’s because I’m hypothermic. This means that my body loses heat quickly and my body temperature is below 35 degrees celsius or at least most days. How do I know this? Well ever since we were enlighted about coronavirus, checking my temperature is my latest obsession. And no doctor is yet to confirm this but google and her homies let me know that I’m slowly dying.

Yes, this is what adulting is all about. But today I am here to share with you one of the most adulting things I have ever bought. But let me finish my story first. I’m fast asleep and my door starts banging, an unnecessary rude awakening. So, of course, I start screaming back and I hear my phone going off, cause DND is long over. I look at my phone and it finally arrived.

Not all heroes…

I run downstairs, put on my N95 mask, wash my hands, put on my surgical gloves, open the door and there she is. Sanitize the box, cut it open and instinctively put it together without even looking at the manual. I hadn’t even had my morning pee or warm water. But I was already taking my favorite purchase around the house that I am renting.

I bought a vacuum cleaner and I feel like such a super adult! And nevermind the fact that my dishes are slowly pilling up or that I left my washing in the washing machine 3 days after the machine let me know that my load had completed a full, successful washing cycle.

Super Human

None of those things really matter. The point is that I got sick and tired of always breaking out into a full spring clean anytime I see dust, sneeze, allergies take over or all of the above. I took matters into my own hands and I can now spring clean once a week and vacuum in between.

And do you know what I found after my first vacuum around my house? Is that I’m not crazy and there is a lot of dust/ dirt around us all the time and nobody says anything about it! But the real question of the day is: ‘Is Adulting a scam?’

What are your thoughts on adulting? Is it a scam? What is the most adulting thing you have done or purchased?
