So, this is this

So, I'm pretty weary about personal blogs in the internet, but I figured what the hell.
The weather in Vegas is super nice right now, and it's supposed to rain this weekend. Stoked on that.
We bbq'd last night, and I made dutch croquettes for the first time, and veggie too! They turned out pretty good, I was surprised. I'm glad that I'm able to make them now, +1 for me in the world of cooking.

I'm trying to figure out my plans for the future. Ideally, go to grad school and get my masters in Social Welfare and land a job with the government dealing with either children or native americans. But since I don't have a Bachelors in Psych or Sociology, I don't know what my next best step is. If I volunteer for some sort of non-profit, how do I know that will help? So far the only ones I can find deal with homeless women and homeless kids...(which I have volunteered for in the past). Which is cool, but I think I'd like to be more actively involved in the world of social work to really taste what it is like. Alas, this is problematic, because it is hard to find the right program or people willing to just let you in to help them out. I have also bought a few books about child welfare and am trying to educate myself as much as possible, not only to see what I'm getting into, but also because I lack the bachelors degree in psych or sociology and want to make sure I am somewhat educated about this shit before I dedicate years of my life and thousands upon thousands of tuition moniez!

Other than that, just now starting to feel better.. I was sick for like 2 and a half weeks straight, and I'm still blowing my nose and coughing shit up, but I feel better, and more importantly I can ride my bike to work again which is such a relief. That's enough for now.
