Surprise!

Remember when surprises were magical things?  Not the unknown dread of a forgotten Bill or an emergency lurking around the corner like a scary stranger with a puppy.  When the world felt safe and the extra dollar in your pocket would be meant only for a lovely treat.
  Now any extra money comes with the dread that when you have it the universe will conspire against you and it will have to be spent on some emergency.
  I miss magical super cool things just happening,  I am a grown up now and have to make that magic stuff happen.  Wouldn't be nice to find the surprise trip to Disneyland or some exciting local.
  The fact is that will never happen again for us.  The grown-up club.  Well it might if you married really well or manage to date super great.  People like me nope not happening and most the populace not going to happen again.  We are stuck with the: Surprise! Your rent is increasing. Surprise! Your transmission just fell out.  Surprise! You house needs to be tented. ( I didn't even know my house liked camping)

Welcome to adulthood.. There is no Pixie Dust here.
