Higher Education?

I don't know if I told you blog readers, but I'm working on my edubication. Yes, I've got my sights set on a master's degree in admin. I should be finished in 17 more months, if I don't get kicked out. The entire deal is online. I'm loving that. It is sort of like blogging your way to a skin on the wall. Works for me. So, that previous post about moving to California, well that is what I now call my "2 year plan." I wouldn't want to move before I finish this deal here in the great state of Texas. Of course, just because I call it my 2 year plan doesn't mean it is a sure thing. Scott is against the move (which is sort of major), and well, my life's pretty good here, so I may just not be meant to move. We'll see what happens...in two years when my plan tries to go into motion.

California Dreamin' ?

View Larger Map
Since I've returned from my trip to Cali last week, I have been sifting through real estate on the web for evidence that a relocation is possible for me and mine. It is as expensive as shinola out there. I've found a couple of pockets of real estate that would be financially feasible. But, they are not in a city we'll say.

Let me just lay it out for you: to move to the part of California I want, we'd be talking trailer. There I said it. Here is an example: 1500 sq. feet for $250K That trailer is like many others listed for the town of Scott's Valley in the Santa Cruz Mountains, about 10 minutes from Santa Cruz which is a place I love. Also, Scott's Valley is only about 30 minutes from my lovely sister and the bustling work mecca of Silicon Valley.

Ok, so we are back to talking about the fact that me living in NorCal means me living in a trailer. Right. Awesome. Spectacular. No?

So, what do you think? Is the California dream of mountains, beaches, year-round cool breezes and sunshine worth trailer shame? I know North Texas is pretty awesome, but I've lived here for now a total of 23 years of my life. Let me know what you guys think.

real smooth

Tonight i went to take off my eye make up (yes i wear eye make up once a week) and I used rubbing alcohol on the cotton ball instead of make up remover. Yes, it burned severely.

I think I really need more sleep.
