Middle of November

Hello all!

It is now the middle of November, and I've decided to update again.

I have all sorts of things on the horizon, job-wise, only a few of them are really desirable to me. I'm working pretty regularly at Cafe Mestizo, in the neighborhood, and that is a blast! Who knew? I would become a knowledgable barista! haha. It's a blast, it's a great environment, and there could be some pretty serious hours looking up soon. On the other hand, I haven't started the Macy's job yet, that starts this weekend, and will be a blast, I'm sure. I'll get to deal with "specialty jewelry" all day every day. Woo!! And I have to contact the woman at Fanny May on Wacker and Michigan about a job there. So, I have a pretty full schedule, but not something that I REALLY want to do as a serious career.

I also have put together a small list of things I want to do or have accomplished by the time I'm thirty, a little more than seven years from now. I'll share them here:

I want to have held a position in the same company for at least 5 years.
I want to be making at least $50,000 a year.
I want to have a serious relationship.
I want to have traveled to a foreign country that is not in North America.
I want to have gone on a cruise.
I want to have seriously considered marriage.
I want to have considered having children.
I want to have returned to school for a Masters in either Clinical Psychology or Public Administration.
I want to have lived in Chicago and at least one other large city outside of Kansas.

I feel like those are all reasonable, and I am beginning to work on realizing some of them. I'll be back soon for more news.
