Send Bouquets Of Freshly Sharpened Pencils Please.
I'm going back to school.

I heard someplace that college is a good idea and thought I'd be the first to jump on this hot new trend.


*giggle*



I'd been putting it off for so long because I have no idea what I want to be when I grow up (other than useful and an inch taller).
But I've decided, after a pep talk from Bunny that included an analogy with Tigger and 'Roo, that I'll figure it out as I go, and the important thing is to just start pluggin' away.

And so I am now Lola's first enrollee in her new job as an enrollment counselor for Ashford University.

Not only will I be taking my classes online from work while getting paid, I might even be able to get my boss to PAY for the classes. I like this plan.

And so I will be working toward my Bachelor of Arts in Organization Management, with a concentration in Liberal Arts.

I like the idea of studying history, but I asked Lola what on earth would I be able to do with it.
She said that most people with that degree either teach or go into fields like the FBI or the CIA.

I laughed hysterically and said, "Loes, hun, can you picture ME in the CIA? Can you picture my blog?
'So Then The Serbian Ambassador Said....'
'Another Actual Secret Negotiation'
'So Then I Said ...... Here's your briefcase full of money, it's all there, gift wrapped and tied with a chiffon ribbon bow and a sprig of lavender. What? WHAT?'
'Greetings From The Safe House'
'Happiness is .... naming your new sniper rifle. Macy. I love her ...'
'So I got fired (at) for my blog today. I just don't understand why the (russian crime) boss was so angry about the pictures....'"



*laughs*



At any rate, wish me luck and send me new highlighters.
