Career Choices

This is a picture of Stud Boy and his beautiful cousin at a College Visit.   We have spent a number of weekends visiting area colleges to decide where these High School seniors would like to apply.  Beautiful Cousin is considering a career in marketing.  Nice!

Stud Boy is undecided.  You know, that's okay...at 17, how do you know what you really want to do with the rest of  your life?

At 9, you know.  Thing One wants to be a Professional Football Player and Thing Two wants to be an Artist.  I know what you are thinking....you hope I have a pretty big nest egg and long term health care insurance that will pay for a decent nursing home and life time supply of Depends since the odds of those two supporting me in my old age is slim to none.

So the responsibility, as it should be, falls to the one and only daughter.  In this case, Darling Daughter.  When the discussion around the kitchen table is what major Stud Boy is leaning towards, Darling Daughter pipes in that she will be going to college and studying Mythology.  She plans on being a Mythologist.  Great!  I'm sure there is a high demand for that job and it earns a great living!  I'm hoping she can get a job at snopes.com.

I think I better start playing the lottery.
