I need to continue my ninja turtle phase:




And then my Star Wars input:




And then we'll switch to a little Star Trek retro, to be fair:





And we'll transition back to cat:




And, finally, a lil Serengeti humor:




I'm kind of obsessed with the TV show Criminal Minds.
Specifically Matthew Gray Gubler.
I think it's because his character reminds me of, well, me when I was younger. Not that I'm some brilliant savant, I don't mean to imply such at all, but it's more in the sense that he's so completely engrossed and motivated by his areas of knowledge and expertise that he lacks certain social graces as a result.
I think I came out of the womb as a nerd.
And, as a result, I suffered all through grade school and much of junior high as a result. High school brought brief respites but I was still socially awkward on the best days.
This is all because I excelled (and still do) at being a bookworm.



It took me years and years to grow comfortable with who I was and I think it's only when you finally accept who and what you truly are that you move forward unburdened toward the next chapter in personal growth.
That may sound kind off tree-hugging hippy-ish but I mean it in a very literal sense.

So, with this said, I've decided it's time to go back to school.

After years of bartending I enrolled in trade school a few years back to get a quick degree to begin working in the medical field. It was ridiculously easy (as trade schools are) so now it's time to go back and actually get my bachelors. I'm thinking nursing will probably be the best bet although I've have to do an opposite minor to satisfy my bookworm wants; I have this budding interest in organic chemistry.
So amazing.
I think I'm gushing here.

Yep, I'm kind of a nerd and, truth be told, I'm pretty proud of that.


Alright, time to go make sushi and stop speaking geek.

Night-night, termites.
