Interesting...

So today at work I went for a walk during lunch. It was gorgeous and got me thinking...I am completely free. Let me explain:

1. I have no partner.
2. I have no children (thank GOD).
3. I do not own property.

Beside some student loans and a small car payment, I have no other obligations whatsoever. None. Free as a bird. Many of you out there might be thinking I'm missing out by not having some of these things, but I like it this way. I could pick up and leave TOMORROW for Egypt if I wanted to! This, of course, leads me to the next question:

Why haven't I picked up and left for Egypt?

Well, money is an issue as it is expensive to go to Egypt (I priced it) and it will take a little saving on my part...which would mean giving up certain ludicrously overpriced coffee drinks and that is tantamount to only breathing every other day in my book. BUT...my POINT is I could DO IT if I WANTED TO.

Don't worry. I'm not going to Egypt. When I vacation in another country, it will be somewhere a bit less...terse. But I do plan on going somewhere later in the year. I have a flight credit that must be used before January. I may go to New York to see my friend or use the credit to go somewhere else - I haven't decided. But that's neither here nor there. The fact is I have chosen a life without much structure and the need to depend upon others and be depended upon. At times it can be a little too unstructured but it works well. Whether it stays this way or it changes, for now I highly recommend it.

This is good.

I am happy.

Yes.

Now, what should I do for a permanent career...???
