I guess I'm entering those times...

I realized something today:

I am now entering the years of constant unsolicited advice.

Seriously.  It's going to suck when I'm engaged; I can't even handle all of the unsolicited graduation advice, let alone unsolicited marriage advice.  That will be hell.  And let's hope that unsolicited baby advice is many years away.

Enjoy the non-advice years ( Read more... )

general annoyances, ch-ch-changes

i guess when you go to beauty school people give up on advising you. cant decide if that is a good or bad thing...

ps. will you be home for any of break?

Probably good. Sometimes advice is helpful... but generally it's just annoying.

Also, yes, I will be home for a pretty long time. Depending on how my life goes. I'm becoming what we call in sociology a "boomerang child". sigh. But the folks are excited, and Keenan can't wait for me to teach him how to drive... plus Caroline has already enlisted my help in the 15 prom dresses she's making this year... so... I guess it'll be good. :P Plus we can hang?

Just to clarify; the "?" at the end of plus we can hang has more to do with me just assuming that you're in the area and not being totally sure, not the awesomeness of the possibility of hangout.

Additionally, I saw your new haircut via facebook-- hot.

yeah, we can actually hang a lot because im living in heights atm and i have a baby dog who i have to come home to just about every night or she thinks im abandoning her. so im around a lot. :) he can sit back and revel in the no more school for a long long time haze - i still feel like its summer and were just having this inconvenient little cold snap. its crazy.

and thanks!

pffft my advice has been since forever. are you forgetting your college decisions? remember when you were 18 and everyone was telling you where you should go to school and what you should major in?

when you're settled and have a job and grown children then you can start telling other people what to do.

it's a vicious cycle.

I guess that's true. But I feel like this is much worse. I was on the phone with a woman for 20 minutes today-- she was telling me all about how I should apply for this job and that job and blah blah blah. All I had to say was "Well, I'm graduating..."

I don't even know what she looks like.

From what I remember about where you should go to college advice, it was mostly... well. I don't know. Mr. Pridy and Mrs. Klein telling me I should teach and stuff. And Mrs. Stanley yelling at me to stay in choir. It was people who cared about me, ya know? Somehow unsolicited advice from people who care about me and like, know who I am, is okay.

I want to break freeeeeeeeeeee!

Are you coming back to The Park for winter break?
