Hey all! I know alot of you don't care much about me but I'll say to hell with you and go anyways...These last 4 days I've gone through a helluva lot. Thursday I went to the funeral of a friend killed in Iraq. The rest of the day and the next I went trying to sooth whatever emotion became of his older Scorp brother. Friday, I spent stoned and drinking, while listening to every piece my sis's collection had to offer. Saturday, yes, recuperating. Sunday, recupurating, riding the bike home in the rain, and also on Sunday, a tornado warning. Spent the warning time drinking a beer with an English gentleman whose wife offered me shelter during the storm. The storm ended, which brought me to the conclusion to follow sis and Mom's advice on pursuing a history major. Thus, I've quit my decent job, and have decided to pursue such. May the Lords of Finance give me luck. OV IP: Logged |

Wow! Life changing time!Often the most traumatic and emotion-full times give you the most clarity on what's important. I'm sorry about your friend. My Capricorn Moon gives a nice, distant pat on the head, to your Capricorn Moon. Naw, we're both Capppy Mooners, I can smooch you. That's exciting! The Gods of Finance will bless you for sure.. this is fated and a great thing! Besides... the way I look at it.. if you are in a job where you can just decide to quit.. boom, like that, and then do it... then you don't like your job. Go find something you DO like. Simple. Be well. Thanks for the update. IP: Logged |

Smooches back fellow Cappy Mooner! Thanks! To be honest, I've wanted to quit for some time, but I took the signs of the last few days, brought to a head yesterday with the tornado warning, as a good intuitive indicator to slam on the brakes so to speak, and take a different road. Do take care of yourself pixie! IP: Logged |
