What to do with my life?
Argh, I'm so confused! The job search pisses me off because none of the jobs are things I want to do, and the salaries are $10,000 less than I made at my last job. I really want to be in school toward a graduate degree, since that's the only way, seemingly, that I'll ever move closer to having a career rather than a job. I had always thought I wanted to get a PsyD degree (doctorate in clinical psychology), but my sister-in-law has that, and she mentioned that for the amount of school and money, it might be a better choice to get an MSW. Hourly rates are supposedly not that much less with an MSW than with a PsyD. But now that I'm doing a little research online (maybe that can't be trusted?), it's listing salaries with an MSW at less than $50,000. That's not enough if I spend a bunch of money on school for the degree. Maybe I need to speak with a career counselor or someone in a graduate program; like an advisor. Any suggestions? Comment!
Ravinia
Going to Ravinia tonight with my mom for an outdoor concert was just amazing. Bebel Gilberto was actually the opening act, which surprised me. Then Chucho, who my mom called Choochoo played piano with the Afro-Cuban Messengers. They were great! We had glasses of wine, a lavendar candle, and rented chairs and a table there, oh yeah, and salads.

Phone Interview
well, I bit the bullet, as they say, and went through with the phone interview that I was avoiding. The next step is to decide whether or not it's worth it to go on a 2.5 hour long interview for a $30K job. I'm thinking no. It's so annoying that I'm looking at jobs that pay what I made in the late 90s.

Ravinia!
Mom and I are going Wednesday to see Bebel Gilberto and Chucho Valdes at Ravinia. He's not going to play Rhapsody in Blue, I'm assuming, but that's where I first heard him and liked his version.
Emails
Does anyone know where I can get some P E N. .I. S E N L-A.R.G.E M E N T P...I L L S??
If only someone would email me with some information about this.
why?
So far, I've been blowing off a possible phone interview. Why? Is it my gut? Is my gut wrong? I think it has to do with fear but I"m not sure why. I feel guilty.
On another note, I want to go to Ravinia to see Bebel Gilberto and Chucho Valdez; I'm not sure if I"m going to go yet, but I might.
