gadabout \GAD-uh-bout\

noun:
Someone who roams about in search of amusement or social activity.

THIS is what I want to be when I grow up. Sounds like great fun, roaming, exploring, amusement, social life. However, in all the examples of this word, it referred to a man. Can a woman be a gadabout? Or would she be called something else? Party girl? Desperate? Blonde? Paris? Every now and then, I DO roam around in search of amusement….which is often hard to find as a stay-at-home mom. Laundry? Hilarious. Cooking macaroni and cheese for the bazillionth time? Uproarious! Sucking up dog hair, magnets, and small toys with the Hoover? A scream! Butt wiping? Hysterical! Oh, yes, I am already a gadabout!
