Terrible, Horrible, No Good Very Bad Day

Today has been... rough. I was no showed by employees, had to cancel two jobs (one twice), deal with grumpy contractors, pay $460 for one single tire since I ran over a piece of shrapnel the size of a small country, I think I broke my back and a strut on a back country road, I had to deal with a company car accident (not me, and no one was hurt) (but the van is a write off), and I just burnt my tongue on my supper.

But... class was great, the night is beautiful, and I have a dog curled up in my lap. Today has been great.

Or an Astronaut...

I am still in process of deciding what I want to be when I grow up. The problem is, now that I'm older I can't just say "I want to be a fire truck!" without first thinking it through, what education do I need to become a fire truck, where would I work as a fire truck, do I need to move as a fire truck, oh, wait, I'm human, not a truck.

I can list several disciplines that I'm interested in, but the problem is, am I willing to do what is required to follow through? If I need to move across the country, am I willing to? If I need to take night courses, sell my car, quad, holiday trailer to pay for tuition, will I? Am I willing to take 2 steps back before I can take one forward?

Despite being made of organic materials, I think being a fire truck would have been simpler and easier.
