All dressed up...

And nowhere to go.

Yes, you've heard it, but I feel like I'm livin' it large sometimes, and other times I feel like, well, okay, here goes a long post that I'll try to shorten up.

By way of example, recently I've been thinking about learning Spanish, maybe learning to tap dance, hey! Who knows right? Where does my passion lie?

Well, not with tap, but in learning and improving myself. At the same time as my life is moving forward, new kid and all that, it seems like when I do bother to try and physically or mentally improve things for myself, I'm simply preparing for a marathon, only to find out they canceled it.

Yup. It's a "why bother" mentality that is kind of annoying to me. I rarely believe in the whole "education for its own sake" concept so I usually need to have an endgame in sight.

Right now? Not so much of an endgame because I'm not sure what I'll be doing in a few years. Hopefully, something more than what I am up to now, of course.

In the meantime I'll just roll with the punches and enjoy the vacation.
