		<description>It will depend on how you look at it and exactly where you happen to be coming from on the subject really. In the long run attractiveness is in the eye of the beholder, but I am with you on this one.</description>

She used the word cognizant more times in 1 meeting then I care to actually think of. Drives me nuts! The day I was fired I actually felt like the weight of the world fell off me. I seriously could not remember the last time I felt so excited, my instant reaction was I&#039;M GOING TO SCHOOL FINALLY! Made my decision to switch careers from corparate monkey to Nurse not just a Nurse but a traveling nurse, I love people, I&#039;m weird and proud I like hospitals ( I know crazy!) and I want to travel the world, I&#039;m 24 and I&#039;ve never been on a plane, train, or been to the west coast, farthest and longest vacation Milton PA for a funeral......Le sigh....so Thank your a inspiration starter and moving force in an ever stagnant world!

		<description>Right on sister!  I feel much the same way.  I didn&#039;t start out taking the traditional route but at one point got into a rut.  I was in the carpenter&#039;s union and I was miserable working long cold days with people that were unhappy with their lives and felt everyone else should be too; that suffering through work even though you hate it is what make your life valid.  How else would you support the required spouse and children?  (btw - many of their relationships were in shambles, but then again, it must be hard to sustain a relationship when you&#039;re miserable in your life).  One day I just said &quot;screw it, things have got to change.&quot;  I had traveled and did a bunch of things for many years prior and couldn&#039;t believe the position I found myself in.  I applied for college the next day.  Best decision I&#039;ve ever made.  In the past four years since I started school I&#039;ve traveled the world, decided to open a business (Bandwagon Brewpub: grand opening Dec. 15th), and have a much fuller and enriching social life, not to mention a million and a half bits of minutia that have made my life incredible.  The system is in place to make people money, not to make people happy.  The problem is money is not happiness and is often viewed as the end and not simply an abstract system that has no innate value. To me this blog hits the nail on the head.  Keep preachin&#039;.</description>

		<description>Right on sister!  I feel much the same way.  I didn&#039;t start out taking the traditional route but at one point got into a rut.  I was in the carpenter&#039;s union and I was miserable working long cold days with people that were unhappy with their lives and felt everyone else should be too; that suffering through work even though you hate it is what make your life valid.  How else would you support the required spouse and children?  (btw - many of their relationships were in shambles, but then again, it must be hard to sustain a relationship when you&#039;re miserable in your life).  One day I just said &quot;screw it, things have got to change.&quot;  I had traveled and did a bunch of things for many years prior and couldn&#039;t believe the position I found myself in.  I applied for college the next day.  Best decision I&#039;ve ever made.  In the past four years since I started school I&#039;ve traveled the world, decided to open a business (Bandwagon Brewpub: grand opening Dec. 15th), and have a much fuller and enriching social life, not to mention a million and a half bits of minutia that have made my life incredible.  The system is in place to make people money, not to make people happy.  The problem is money is not happiness and is often viewed as the end and not simply an abstract system that has no innate value. To me this blog hits the nail on the head.  Keep preachin&#039;.</description>

		<description>Sam ~ Thanks, girlfriend!!!  Glad you stopped by.  

Clayton ~ Thanks for the kind words!  If given the option, I&#039;d definitely have to go with Beach Beige, myself.  Sahara Sand makes me think of Spaceballs, the movie.  (Although that may not be a bad thing, after all) ;)  Congratulations on your recent emancipation ~ would love to hear about your new plans.  Rock on, Clayton!</description>
