Fæder ure

Tobecume þin rice.
Gewurþe ðin willa
on eorðan swa swa on heofonum.
Urne gedæghwamlican hlaf syle us todæg.
And forgyf us ure gyltas
swa swa we forgyfað urum gyltendum.
And ne gelæd þu us on costnunge,
ac alys us of yfele.
Soþlice.
This should be prefaced with the warning that I only update once every three months or so. I read my friends pages less often than that. It's not that I don't care, but the internet must be reserved for those of us with time on our hands. I'm a busy, busy girl.
I'm 35 years old and a single mother. My daughter will be ten in July. She is my best friend and we do almost everything together. I say almost, because she can't hold her liquor like I can.
I have two BAs and graduated from the University of Mobile summa cum laude. I'm currently paying masses of loans for said education(s) and am looking for a cheap (read: free) way to obtain my masters degree. At 35, I'm still not sure what I want to be when I grow up.
Do I shoot for law school? a ph.d and become a college professor? pursue a career path in library science? My life is a perplexity of self-analysis and the answers remain perpetually fogged and just out of reach.
I'm currently working for a mean, old bastard who is about to open a local restaurant. I'm interviewing for other jobs. Finding one that pays the bills is proving a difficult task.
I have a very close network of friends. We've taken to calling ourselves the 'clique' in an attempt to relive the glory days of high school. They range from stay-at-home moms to unemployed Muslims, but we love each other and we're there for each other in a manner never before experienced. The circle expands on occasion and tightens on occasion, but the core group are ones I know I can count on for bail, good times, babysitting, and to laugh or cry with me depending upon the situation. Not many people are as fortunate.
To sum this all up, my life is just like yours. My experiences make me uniquely the same as you. It's staggering really.
Welcome to my brain. Please keep your hands and feet inside the car at all times. I hope you enjoy your stay here.
