Well, the move to Portland seems to be coming together nicely. Rather than get a roommate and be able to make it on my $800 a month living stipend, I've elected to bust my arse with a second job. I need my own place, where I can decorate how I choose, fall asleep in the bathtub, or play guitar buck nekkid. I think I've found...

Holy fucking crap! Portland State just called me, they're giving me a full graduate assistantship with their non-profit management program! That means I'll be getting my masters degree for free, plus they'll pay me $800 a month. Words cannot describe my elation. Jobwise, I'll pretty much be doing what I do now, which means coordinating service-learning projects between university folks and kids at the K-12...

Doldrums. The stagnant summer south. I'm a Louisiana coon-ass all the way, and I've spent most of the last 5 years in south Mississippi, so you'd think I'd be used to the sweltering climate. I'm not. The most drastic effect of the heat really isn't physical (I've endured almost 10 years of driving vehicles with no air conditioning). It's a mental fatigue, siphoning of energy...

And when you work with a slew of kids each day, a...

Hey, I just graduated from USM last May. I live in Virginia now, but I saw where you were from on the boards and I thought that it was kind of funny. Anyway that's it. I guess people from MS never think that they'll run into people from MS once they leave. (Okay it's the internet but that's not the point.)

At age 23, I have found myself floundering about in a place that I swore I would never be at again.

High School.

I'm not actually in high school (I've already finished college, fucking loads of good this degree is doing me while I starve and count couch change for beer), but my life has become the mirror image of what it was those years...

Don't even begin about high school.
I DO have to go back.
And my mom never cooked for me, or did my laundry.

Glad to find a member who loves their beer as much as I do.
