So this Portland thing...
Sep. 3rd, 2004 06:37 pmSheesh! Some of you are commenting like this is some decision I/we've made or something, to pack everything up (again) and haul it around the country (again), and well, that's just not the case. But it's not like I don't always want to have options. Oh no. I loooooooove options. Quite a lot, actually. Options options options.
You see, there's one thing Jen has wanted to do for a long time, and that's go back to school for Art Education. (She actually used to talk to Missy about this quite a bit.) And we even talked back in the day about how it would be good for her to go to OSU for it, since OSU is pretty cheap, and we were residents, and the cost of living is low enough that we could get by with her being a student. But when push came to shove, she didn't want to get all of her professional experience in Ohio because she didn't want to stay in Ohio, and didn't want the trouble of starting over with certifications and all of that.
There is no way that she would be able to go to school here, because there is no way we could survive with her earning student money - not even with the deferment of her massive student loans. I mean, maybe we could if we got some sort of crap apartment, and one of the expensive private schools in the area would pay for her to go to school... but it's not very likely.
The idea of finding a place that is not the Midwest that my Jennifer would like to live in, that is also affordable enough for her to be able to go back to graduate school to become an art teacher like she's wanted, is very appealing to me. All I really want is for her to be able to achieve her dreams, yanno? (Well, I want to achieve mine too, but that just involves GETTING A BABY ALREADY, and that's kind of dependent on her. Heh.) As long as she has that dream, I will be there trying to find ways for her to achieve it. And I know that her dream is not to be in sales for the rest of her life, and it makes me kind of sad that she's 'settled' on sales because it's the only way she thinks she can get by right now. Sad sad.
And I'm terribly in lust with
Adrienne and just miss her hott body so much I would cross the country to get it!
