Big Dreams...and the Reality I Found
At 18 I really thought I had my whole life planned out. I was going to college. While at college, I was going to meet the man I was going to marry. We would graduate and get married. I would find a job writing for a local television station. He would get promoted and we would move to some fun city with an obscene cost of living. We would live either in a little apartment or find the perfect old house. I was going to be able to quit my job and write full time (books, blogs whatever) and make enough $ to do it full time. We were both going to be successful. It was going to be perfect. My priorities were clear. Almost 14 years later, this is very obviously not the case. Life happened. Choices were made. Some good things changed my path along with some very bad things. I went to college. I did not meet the man I was going to marry at school. Actually, I'm not married. I might not ever get married. In which case I already am well on my way to being the crazy bird lady:...
