| I've
had several different "careers" in my life. The first job that
I had was working as an assistant for someone who turned out to be a mad
scientist! My second job was operating my father's antique store for a
bit ( until it was burned down by the Foot Clan. This still makes me
furious and gives me nightmares! ) Recently I've been working as a
"roving reporter" for a local news station and writing my
"Great American Novel." I miss the antique store, but
reporting is fun. I've had some pretty odd luck with career choices!
The
best thing that ever happened to me was meeting the Turtles. Besides
saving my life several times over, they've taught me what friendship is
really about. I love those guys, and they've become my family. Being
around them tends to wreck havoc with any sense of "normality"
that I sometimes yearn for, but the benefits of knowing them FAR
outweigh the detriments. They're the best people I've ever known.
The
one thing that I'm beginning to miss is a relationship. I know Michelangelo
and Raphael would like to see Casey and I get together, and lately, I
think this just might happen. Casey is a great guy, if I can just get
around that crazy attitude he has at times. Still, we both have so much
in common, and Casey is the most honorable and thoughtful man I've ever
met. Time will tell. :)
Career-wise
I'm coming to another crossroads. While reporting is fun, and being a
local celebrity has its advantages, I'm growing tired of the shallowness
of the whole thing. I'd like to make my mark on the world, and I don't
know if reporting is the path that I should walk. Some have been very
successful in the field, but I'm having my doubts. Perhaps I'll be able
to make a splash with my book ( if I ever get it finished :). I've
always kept diaries, and with the experiences that I've garnered through
knowing the Turtles, I think that "Great American Novel" is
just a million keyboard taps away. Time will tell on that end, too!
But
enough about me! How are you doing??? <g>
