Sick again. Well, it's a cold with a 10% chance of cough, 30% chance of sneezing, 65% chance of runny nose, and 100% chance of being miserable. I swear I got this from Belmar...but at the same time, his was more of a coughing thing...but I dunno anyone else who was sick! Not fair...

So...he's in the Navy. The job they chose him is pretty much an engineering gig, where he'd be fixing missiles and radar dishes and stuff like that. He gets a 1 yr crash course, a $10,000 sign-on bonus, and a shit ton of money, not to mention he'd be going from place to place for a job that only 10,000 people in the entire Navy can land. However, he doesn't want that, and won't sign on for real unless they give him a medical position.
Personally, I wish he'd just fight for scholarships and stuff like the rest of us, then get into medical school because he's that good. But he's all about getting want he wants as fast as he can, isn't he? I just have to be cool with it, I guess.
I'm thinking that busying myself for the next five years would be a good idea. I can focus entirely on school...which is awesome. And I can pick up little side-projects, like I would when I was single. I'm not into the idea, but we'll get there.
............
I'm thinking about that move that Lee and Jose are doing in February, and I don't think I'm completely sold on it. First, how am I gonna conjure up $1000 by February without a job? I know the practical solution would be to get a job, but...I just don't have the time for it. The work load's piling up like no other. I've got a movie to make, 4 drawings to finish (two to start), various chapters to read, a debate to prepare for, and the magazine to get off the ground. I'm not into this. At all.
And Lee pissed me off the other day, twice in the hour, two different occasions, so I'm not too into the idea a bit because of bias, I guess. But...honestly, it's mostly the money.
And I don't want to take money from anyone for something like this. It's just not something I'm okay with.
I doubt I'm gonna go through with it. I should just tell them that.

That debate starts in 35 minutes. I need to get to class >.
