From my LJ

I am the plenipotentiary* of my life

I have control over it.

Why then does it feel like I don't at times? Like other people are making decisions for me? Like I am relegated to a certain path not because I choose it but rather because someone has put up barriers to keep me there.

Well I tell you I am done with that. Give me a sledge hammer.

This work thing is lasting only a year more. Thats it, I wontbe able to take it any longer than that. Why even that long, well I am going to go to grad school. I am going to take steps to do what I really want. And that wont be until next fall. So that means work will last another year and then I am so out of the chairborn rangers (or desk jockey for those who have no military influences) and I am going to do it. Nothing to say I cant go back to a desk job if the need arises, but fuck the desk, I want to create.
I have been mulling the idea over and doing some research the past few days, and anything that has this much thought given to it must be the right path to take. So thats it. Decision made.

Now I just have to hope that I get accepted somewhere....
