What the hell is the meaning of life??? My good friend, Dwayne, back in high school told me once, but I can't find the piece of paper. I think it was something about drinking beer and watching movies. Eh.
I find myself at sort of a crossroads, ready for something new, but unsure of what, and seemingly not with a whole lot of time to figure it out. Be it a career, I have pretty much ruled out social work and would have to either work up to something else at the place of business or go back to school. However, as I've been looking online, by the time I finish another degree, I'll be just about to the time when we're supposed to start trying to have kids. So then will the damn thing even get used anyway - the degree, not the kid. Of course I don't even know what degree I would pursue. I love number, so accounting? Finance? Or, physical therapy assistant, dental hygeinist (hire me, Ari)? DAMN. Not to mention if I do go for more education, it will compromise time with Joe, which is what I've been working toward. Man, decisions.
More later. I'm finally tired enough to sleep and not freak out.

Katie ~ it's all good. Seriously. I know the grass is always greener on the other side but the idea that you don't have to work right now and you can really take your time to figure out what you want to do...why, that sounds just fantastic. You have the opportunity to explore hobbies, do some volunteer work, maybe take a class or two. You don't have to commit to a career or a degree right now. As someone who is locked into school for the next 2 years (and 5 more after that if I want to get a PhD), I say, enjoy this time. Of course, it's easier said than done and I do understand where you're coming from. I wish we lived closer. xoxox
