Throw Back.

Wow, I forgot this thing really existed.

It's been a while. Let me see if I can throw down on the things in my life that have happened to me in the last few years in less than 500 words.

I have 11 credits left before I finish my chemical engineering degree from U of M. I should be working as an environmental engineer for Arcelor Mittal in Cleveland right now, but they did an insane background check and found a possession misdemeanor that should be off my record and pulled back their offer (they also found things from Freshman year of high school..that were of no consequence...from my school record. That is a bit eerie). SO, I am wasting time until I go to work for Toyota (they already finished all paper work and it's a done deal) in September as a research scientist in their material research and development department. During/after this I plan on finishing my degree and getting a real job (even though working for Toyota will be a real job). I have a child, and it's great. She's a super baby. I live with Kara, who's a super lady, and we are getting married when we have money and I am not in school anymore.

I hate that I still don't have my degree. It angers me since I have all the knowledge I need and I could literally take 11 credits about dinosaurs at a community college and transfer the credits to finish my degree at U of M. I should be done. I want to buy a house, and I could be in a few months if not for the dinosaur credits. Oh well, I just have to keep in mind it will be done in less than 12 months from now. I can also take solace in the fact that I am one of the few fortunate who never has to worry about finding a good job. God bless being $17,000 in debt to get a piece of paper. But, I guess it is all worth it in the end and will pay for itself in a short amount of time.

I love Simians.
