I'm a college educated, 25 year old woman, with a penchant for fiction and an apparent inability to do prosaic things like my taxes without a million extensions.
I love sci-fi (Ray Bradbury style), fiction (Neil Gaiman style), am a recent covert to paleo and have just bought into the crossfit cult of cult-yness. I have a job working retail, despite having opportunities to get a 'real job,' but my loathing of meaningless paper pushing and sitting behind a desk shuffling papers for someone else terrifies me.
My main goal in life: figure out how my profession can involve me surrounded by books (and I mean, like literally surrounded. Books on every available surface), happily contented in the middle with a mug of tea and a laptop... or journal if I'm going really old school.
I'm probably going to get my MFA even though I have been known to say that getting your MFA is essentially a mastubatory endeavor for those who want to spend two to three years dicking around inside their own heads and creating an excuse to write almost exclusively during that time...... doesn't that sound AMAZING?
I will do more of these, I'm sure. This was a spur of the moment, 'I JUST WOKE UP AND CROSSFIT SOUNDS AWFUL RIGHT NOW' blog creation (I'm sure that's very common - blogs the result of a lack of sleep and the terror of crossfit after a two week break). So. I'll catch up with you later.
