Being an adult is when you order something and open in 2 years later

As a kid I couldn't wait for a package to arrive. Whether it was a Lego set coming for me, or the new printer my parents bought, I'd want to open it right away. It would shock me when adults would say "I bought this new blender 6 months ago and still haven't touched it." Like... how can you wait that long??

Well... I get it now. I have a mirror I bought a year ago and still haven't unboxed. I bought a book I wanted to read and then got too busy and it's been 6 months now. When you work 70 hours a week, things like packages sort of get put aside...
