I'm feeling a bit less nervous about this whole social work thing.
I saw E today and she usually helps to steer my in the right direction (sometimes, however, I think it's a bit biased direction) but she does help ease my fears. She also told me her salary, which I was a little shocked to learn was much higher than I expected, but shocked in a good way. I know money's not everything, but I do not want to go through 7 years of school and not be paid accordingly. And I also want to love what I do enough that it's okay not to be a millionaire.
It's just the making sure I love it that seems to be the hard part.
I'm still confused and I'm still unsure of what I'm going to do. But at least I have until the end of this semester until I have to make a real choice.
And I'm really rather sick of writing about this and I'm sure every one's really sick of reading this, so hopefully a decision will be reached so I can stop freaking rambling on and on about it.

My boss asked me to babysit his son Friday night, instead of actually working, which is always a plus. But I always worry if I lose J or if I burn his billion dollar house down if he'll still let me come back to work the next day...
And I'm also hoping that in return for babysitting *and* not telling his wife that he ditched J to go out Friday night while she's away that he'll send me to Vegas for a "conference." Today he wasn't very receptive of sending me, but hopefully he'll change his mind...

Wow that was a heck of a lot of rambling about nothing. I need to get a more interesting life.

choices,
school,
