"May"--what I 'may' do...

I was able to do some writing on my final paper today, and I'm starting to get really excited about graduation. May 19.

I'm looking forward to being able to do nothing...or anything else I want to do!

So here are a few things that I might do starting after I walk off the stage on May 19 with my diploma in hand:

1. Get a dog. A beagle, like Porthos on Enterprise. I've never had a pet, but for some reason I can't get enough of that dog.

2. OR...get two cats. They don't need as much attention, and two of them could keep each other company.

3. EXERCISE. I can't wait to get back into shape--no, I want to get into amazing ROCKING shape, a shape I've never been before!!!! Running, the gym, weights, and some interesting dance classes...I'm so ready for this. By the time I turn forty I want to feel GREAT.

4. Sing. I really think I'm going to do it this time...get my guitar and a friend or two with hand percussion and get out there.

5. OR...act. I think community theater is where I might try that out.

6. Get my voice over career on going. I've done a few commercials locally (all pro bono, ha ha) and really enjoy that. So in my "spare" time, maybe I'll get recording.

7. Fix up my yard. Woah...maybe that's a bit too much.

CAN'T WAIT FOR UNLIMITED FREE TIME WITH NOTHING PENDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Early congratulations! A word of caution about the two cats; we have two and I always assumed they would keep each other company. If anything else, having two cats has been nothing but another way to fill two completely different spaces in our house. They only "keep each other company" if it means teaming up to make sure the food dish is filled or the back door to freedom is opened for them.

Can't wait to read your blog post on graduation day!

Thanks for the cat tip, Matt. (Hey, that rhymes with catnip...)

Thanks for the encouragement, too. I need it.

I can't get a break! I need time and I can't find any - time that is undivided by children, business, and all the demands of living (I'll just leaves TAXES out of that list in spite of how huge they feel right now).

Sigh.

I want to graduate, but can I get it done?
