Shou...I look forward to your tarot reading, Diana. Should be good.<BR/><BR/>I didn't think about me being a teacher when she asked what I did. Because, you're right, there really isn't a simple answer for this...though why I didn't mention teaching surprises me a little. At the time, I wasn't teaching yet, so I hadn't felt particularly teacherly at that moment. <BR/><BR/>And, you know, looking over this post again I noticed, along with the typos, that I'm forcing doubt on the reading that I don't need to do. It's like I'm a guy watching Moses part the Red Sea, and I'm saying, "Oh, tide's out, huh? Real fancy. Moses, more like Poses." <BR/><BR/>You're right about the moleskin not necessarily meaning writer. All this stuff was relevant, and applied to me, so why am I injecting disbelief where I could believe?Bryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09071302507467572886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19981140.post-57172365227741971252008-10-25T12:58:00.000-05:002008-10-25T12:58:00.000-05:00Ask for the tarot cards next time.And keep writing...Ask for the tarot cards next time.<BR/><BR/>And keep writing writing writing.Big Permhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09480124198572600270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19981140.post-64454984568449025182008-10-25T12:46:00.000-05:002008-10-25T12:46:00.000-05:001. What happened three years ago?I knew this was ...1. What happened three years ago?<BR/><BR/>I knew this was the MFA right off. <BR/><BR/>2. And, she sees that this expansion is a good thing for me, relates to the education in some way. I should really make sure I pursue this education thing.<BR/><BR/>You do more than just answer calls at a call center. You're also teaching. I don't think her point about education means you're going back to school. I think it's about teaching. You're going to get more classes. I wonder if you're going to be made full time at some point.<BR/><BR/>3. Carrying a notebook doesn't mean you're obviously a writer.<BR/><BR/>4. One of my interactions with her went like this:<BR/><BR/>Janet: Do you have any questions.<BR/><BR/>Me: Yes. About my love life.<BR/><BR/>Janet, scanning the Tarot Cards: A love life is the last thing you need to be thinking about. You've had enough problems in that department. Stop thinking about your love life. You need to get the rest of your life in order.<BR/><BR/>5. I bought a deck of Tarot cards and have been practicing. When I come to Madison, I will bring them with me. I think I'm sort of good at reading them.Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15810886336623723914noreply@blogger.com
