Darling, getting older don't mean SHIT. Also, you're basically an infant, so there's no pressure to Fix Your Life (which is kind of a ridiculous endeavor for you, anyway, because quite frankly you're doing pretty great. Your loans are paid off, you have a good job, you have grownup furniture...I'm proud of you.) As for grad school, think of it this way: what job will this get me? What career do I want? Because grad school is for qualifying you for a career, not just a job. I chose a program that would allow me to do what I love for a living. I knew that I wanted to write, so that's what I pursued. If you don't know what field you'd like to go into, or what kind of job you want to do for the rest of your life, wait. Grad school is a huge commitment, and not something to rush into because you're feeling stagnant.
