Today:

1. Go to the bank.
2. Go to Michael's and pick up some yarn to knit requested scarf.
3. Check MTA schedules and call Nicole.
4. Try to find an eye doctor (Well, I've posted in a few LJ communities asking for recommendations. I should probably put the same post here too.)
5. Call BCCC and get admission information (That's right folks...I'm seriously looking at going back to school. Probably in the fall. BCCC's course offerings are a bit more limited than perhaps I'd like but it's a lot closer than say, CCBC or Essex. And they have a web design certificate program, which is one of the things that I was interested in back when I was trying to get the state to pay for me to go to school. Also, at $78/credit, going only part time, I could pay out of pocket if I need to...and since I'm only looking at going part time, that's a distinct possibility. And I still harbor a lot of distrust for the federal financial aid people. I'm getting sick of doing tech support and anything else that I would actually want to do requires aquiring the knowledge in some way or other. I know I could get books and teach myself...but I think I would do better with some sort of structured teaching.
6. Go to PNO at Valentino's tonight.

Tomorrow:

Imbolc at the Grove.

It's really hard to get a job without some sort of training. Every job I looked up when I wanted to leave Terminix was asking for bachelor degrees and all this other bullshit I didn't have. I really lucked out with my current firm because they are extremely eccentric and I think like finding talent in unusual places. It was actually the first place I applied for when I got pissed off at Terminix that day and you sent me those links off of craigslist :x. So I owe part of that to you :)

you found the job from one of the links I sent you? I never knew that!

Ya know, I was kinda wondering how hard it actually was to get hired for somethgin like this without a piece of paper...I think if I want to do web design, formal education is going to be the way to go.
