I think my problem was in even thinking that there was such a thing as a good straight jacket joke

When I was in high school my dream was of going into the medical field (forensic pathology or genetics). Forensics still fascinates me, but that dream hasn't so much faded as I kinda lost interest once I discovered helicopters.

So right now I'm studying for the AFAST and working on improving my PT score so I can be a little more competitive when I submit my Aviation Warrant Officer packet when I redeploy. My eyes aren't perfect, but my current prescription falls within the limits of the flight physical regulation, so it shouldn't be an issue. From what my boss back home (an aviation LTC) and her friend the state flight surgeon say, anything is waiverable.

I've wanted to be a helicopter pilot since my last deployment in '04... but my ex-husband always guilt-tripped me to keep me out of it ("I don't want you to be away from me for so long!"). Ironically, after we had kids (and things were going sour between us) all of a sudden he was completely supportive of me going to flight school.

Want to be come a lighting designer not just director.

I'm currently learning to be a crew chief and how to operate the lighting boards, designing and running the lighting for an opening act and running spot lights for Martina.

I haven't joined the Peace Corps yet. That was a goal of mine before I ever had a degree. It will have to wait until my son is older but it will happen!

I want to get a masters in councelling, I have been hunting for the right program but haven't found it yet. I also love my current job and don't want to feel like I have to quit my job to make the new degree and expense worth it. I will do it someday when it feels right.

It sucks when you don't have any but on the other end there are more important things in life. Being happy is one of them.

Money is important if you don't have enough. Money is important if you have a lot. It isn't all that important when you have just enough, I've found.
