09:01 am - Just keeping you up to date...
After 1 month, work is good. Doing more Useful Things these days.
2nd-ish Paycheck is ultra ultra good. I like Money. Money is my friend.
.
College is kinda good. Too much work, too much stuff slipping behind.
Thank god there's only another month or so to go. On the other hand,
I'm doing pretty darn good for somebody working full time+.

Finishing off my degree online.
Wasn't working, so I took a whole buncha classes, then got job.
Job + full course load = unhappy camper.

Good luck with that. I'm doing a full course load too, but my job is dinky so it doesn't cause any stress. Still, it's disconcerting to be back in school full time with everyone younger than I am. I feel like I'm straddling two worlds. | | From: | jon3 |

Heh, well, since you're taking online classes you probably aren't frequently met with remarks like "Wow, you're old!" from 19 year old juniors when they find out your age. The only good thing is that I can still pass for 18. | | From: | jon3 |

So how did you end up in school at the ANCIENT age of 25 anyway?

I left school in 97 to work at a software company. Four years later I decided to go back to school, we sold the company last spring, and here I am :) | | From: | jon3 |

You know, I think we had this conversation before, but we're both old folks, so our minds wander...
Replace 97 with 94 and software with internet, and you're me.

Good is good, yep, and money makes it oh-so-much better.
I did a masters while working full time, and I came out of it with greatly improved time management skills, in which "management skills" is often a euphemism for "figuring out quickly which things you can safely ignore or delay".
Did you get any nice Autumn riding in on your spiffy new FZ?
PS: quit talking about feeling old, you young punk! | | From: | jon3 |

heh. i have a 'safe to ignore' pile.
sometimes things are escalated to 'must deal with eventually'.
and I did as much riding on the fz1 as possible which of course was not nearly enough to satisfy.
you are lucky to have a job. :) | | From: | jon3 |
