Taking Stock

Let's see. . .It's the second day of the new year (2006, if you are just tuning in.) and I thought that I'd take a look at who I am and what my plans are. At this moment I am single, female, have a bachelor's degree in Art, I can knit, read a book like I was munching candy, type about 30 words per minute, bake a mean apple pie, and I'm pretty happy with myself if you couldn't tell.

Future plans. . .I take the G.R.E. in February because I'd like to get my Masters in Library Science. If all goes well, this should lead to me getting a decent position in a nice, growing library somewhere hopefully in a up and coming town that has lots of good places to eat and shop all within walking distance of my cute little cottage/apartment. I dream in detail, baby.

I'm pretty sure that love and making a family of my own is still a long ways off. I can't imagine being responsible for anyone other than myself at the moment. My digital pet, my Tamogotchi that I'd kept alive for over a year, had a tragic death yesterday. His cute pink casing got caught in door an was crushed. Picture me standing in the center of Wal-Mart trying not to tear up while watching my poor little pet bleed ink all over the inside of his double reinforced casing. I decided not to let him have a lingering death from starvation (I couldn't see the feeding buttons on his screen anymore), so I yanked his batteries with merciful speed. *Sigh* If I get that attatched to a fake pet, can you imagine what kind of Mom I'd be to a kitten or heaven forbid, a real baby? There might be cries of, "No Wire Hangars!!" Hmm. Just some New Year's Musings. Until next time.

Oh, sweetheart! I teared up for your little e-pet, too. I'm sorry it died such an awful death, darling. I will say though, that Pumba is way easier to maintain than one of those little Tamagotchi deals... They need a lot more attention than a real pet.

I am proud of you, Pumpkin.
