Oops...

I almost forgot about this thing again.

Good news - I should have passed my Humanities class I was retaking, and HTML class is going well. School is pretty much over, except for another 2 weeks or so of the online HTML class, but I think I can handle it.

Bad News - I have to go through a bunch of stupid crap and people to get withdrawn without a grade from my Sociology class that the teacher essentially refused to let me try to pass...long story, but because of a math class, or rather lack there of, a hold was placed on my online registrations so now I have to take the long way around.


I'm slightly proud of myself.....I mean at least I tried and did alright at 2 of my classes this time. And although it might seem pathetic to some, any sort of success is a big deal after failing miserably more than once. I might take it easy in the Fall though. Since I took the Spring/Summer classes this year, I don't really have to take classes in the Fall if I don't want to, since it would be like my "summer". It's definitely more convenient, what with all of the holidays during that time of year anyway. But the downside/upside is that I would have to work full-time, and preferably at a real job. You know, no more delivery driving at a Deli for barely permissible wages and half decent tips (immediate cash every other day has its benefits, but it doesn't last past a few days usually). Trade it in for a $10/hr or more full time office job, along with the company politics and somber professional pants, skirts, and sweaters. Not to mention not really being able to take days off when you want/need to.

That's the biggest thing I'm not really ready to give up. If I want or need a day off for a trip or homework or I just don't feel good, I can request it off. If I work at a full-time position where they need and expect me to be there every day, all 8 hours, I'm not going to have that sort of freedom. Unless I want to quit and find another dinky job. Not to mention that I'll probably have to do that anyway when I take classes again, unless I manage to find all online classes or some sort of ridiculous deal like that. The upside is steady decent money to move out and live on and start paying off our debts with.

Well, that's the current dilemma, and I'll start e-mailing my resume around anyway while I seriously weigh the scales, but you never know. There's always the chance I'll win the lottery and be set for at least the next 5 years. Here's to hoping and my new bottle of Jack Daniel's complete with J.D. BBQ sauce and brush.
