A Quarter Life Crisis

Current mood: melancholy

An excerpt from my & Courtney's email covo today: I have no flipin' idea! I don't even know what to go to school for. It sounds stupid & I don't know why I'm telling you this, but all I've ever wanted, since I was a little girl was to get married & have kids - to be a homemaker. I've never dreamed of having a career or whatever - just to be a wife & mom. That's why I moved to California after high school instead of going to college. Of course I was young & naive, but I thought Eric & I would have been together forever. Obviously it didn't work out so well, but that hasn't changed how I want to spend my life. So, until I find my husband & he can afford for me to stay home & have babies, I'm kinda stuck in purgatory. And while I'm here in purgatory, I need to maintain my own house & bills & shit, and I need a job to do that. And I'm sick of doing a job I don't enjoy, but I can't think of anything I'd enjoy going to school for. The only "career" I could love would be my music, but that's not gonna happen. Ugh.
