DEAR ASK A PUNK - I fear I’ve become a cliché. I’m right in the middle of my thirties, and I'm thinking of adding another cat to my apartment. I haven’t had a real relationship in six years and I have pretended that doesn’t bother me. My day job in an office pays my bills, isn’t all that terrible and gives me health insurance (I’m healthy, but you never know) but I see time accelerating and pushing me along with it. I’m definitely NOT flipping out about having a baby as soon as possible or anything, so that’s one cliché I’m avoiding, but after seeing my slightly older friends go unexpectedly baby-crazy I know I can’t rule it out in the future. I guess I’m just feeling like I’m a little bit pointless and I don’t even know that I could figure out a new “direction” even if I had to. What do you think? …Ms. Lost.
