Mid life crisis

Is it possible to have a mid life crisis at 28? Doubtful, but that's what I prefer to call the last two months. Another acceptable description would be 'severe burnout'. I got back from South Africa and I was instantly obsessed with getting a new car. Why? Who really knows, but my justification was that I observed others driving manual in England and in South Africa, and I wanted one. There were of course very stringent parameters as always. I wanted a car that had manual transmission, a nice looking interior, and was cheap. 'Nice looking' to me meant 'old with few buttons and no screens', something I figured out for myself much later in the car buying adventure. Ease of import to Canada was a criteria I didn't really bring to the forefront but I used it to judge what I would buy, although for some reason I was too impatient to wait until residency was done. Then my parents came by and I yelled at my mom for not using her head, then I complained incessantly at work, and then finally one day I caught myself being generally grinchy when my EM elective in Alberta was confirmed. I thought to myself, why do I hate everything? Was it always like this? I'm gonna go back to meditating, like I would in med school. Also, every opportunity to eat food is a test of resolve toward weight loss (learned this the hard way today over fries and ice cream). Also....I like my '86 NA 944 :-)
