(I love the tulip, but I kind of miss your bronze face icon. I always knew immediately which icon to use in response, and it said "Shell" to me. This message has been brought to you by the Committee Against All Change.)

Dude, I feel completely incapable of giving anyone any sort of career advice right now, but I do hope whatever you choose works out great!

Well, I can sort of see why, because you're up to your knees in career-related stuff right now. But I'd still value your thoughts.

I think I still haven't stopped hoping that someday lightning would strike, and I'd just know what I was meant to do with my life. I mean, I'm good at freelance writing, and I mostly enjoy it, and I make money at it, and I'm very happy with the fringe benefits (namely, I don't have to deal with people and I can work from a hospital waiting room almost as easily as at home), but still - where's the lightning? So this poll question was likely the result of my pathetic belief that someone out there must have access to that lightning, and my way of saying that, if so, I was more than ready to be hit.

Except now I think I'm probably not, because that sounds scary and maybe not so comfortable.

And now I will stop rambling in response to your concise, relevant, and well-phrased comment. *ceases rambling; whole body immediately seizes up from the shock*
