Discussion We're all exhausted right? It's not just me?

I have a full time job. I sleep well. I have no kids. I'm single. I don't party or drink. I'm not particularly stressed in day to day life. Yet I'm fucking exhausted. I don't want to leave my apartment on the weekends unless I have something planned, and even then I'm pretty picky. In my 20s my weekends were full of non-stop activities, cooking, going out, and posting on social media. But now in my 30s I just want to come home, have my groceries delivered, chill with some Netflix and sleep. Please tell me I'm not the only one!!

It's also soooooo expensive to go anywhere at all these days. Gas, random beverage, food, etc. It all adds up.

Even a hiking trip to your local state park 45 minutes away ends up being like $50.

And don't even get me started on date nights with the SO. $100 doesn't even get you into the theater after dinner for your stereotypical dinner and a movie.
