I may have been a little bit addicted to this game back in the day, and thanks to Ms. [livejournal.com profile] honey_wheeler I can now indulge without wasting all that paper and the inevitable hand cramps.

 
Behold... My Future
  I will marry Lee Pace.  
  After a wild honeymoon, We will settle down in Portland OR in our fabulous Mansion.  
  We will have 6 kid(s) together.  
  Our family will zoom around in a red Civic.
  I will spend my days as a novelist, and live happily ever after.  
 
whats your future
 



I ADORE Portland, OR. It's gorgeous and near the incomparable Multnomah Falls as well as a climate so completely the opposite of the one here in Houston. (I'm a bit of a masochist. I've recently set up all my yahoo emails to show the weather there.) Plus it's relatively close to my aunt and uncle, and I'd be less than an hour away from my cousin.

HOWEVER, I've been seriously thinking about switching careers because I've found that oncology and research in general are not just the least fulfilling spiritually and morally, but that I have actively grown to dislike the job. I hate everything it is about and that has everything to do with the group of people involved. While there is a bad seed here and there, most of the nurses are great – I am the daughter of a nurse, after all; I’ve a pre-disposition to the profession – but all of the doctors I work for are soul-sucking wastes of flesh and bone. I love to research stuff, I love learning something new every day; I love getting to be anal about grammar (which I'll admit, I'm not the greatest at by any means, but I love learning something new about it every day) and correcting papers (I'm the go-to for all of my friends to proof their papers). Thusly, I'm looking into something in publication, which means somewhere either in New York or L.A. or San Francisco.

I feel like I need to explore a position that's closer to what I ultimately want to do with my life and that will only provide better tools to do it as well as (perhaps) some contacts. Or open doors to a gig writing full time when I’m not writing one best-seller after another (humor a girl, would you?).

Anyway, excuse the emo. Life has been a little up in the air of late due to some family issues I won't go into for the incredible boringness as well as the fact that they induce rage blackouts – suffice it to say, I want to be somewhere further in my life by this time next year and I would be really happy if Houston were behind me, too.
