I think for the next two years I just have to make a real plan to lower all my consumption, pay off those last two credit cards and just bunker down for a while. See how things pan out. Work looks to be steady and sure at least for the next two years. So I should be okay.

What I really need to do is figure out a fall back plan (or job). I want to spend this time learning a new skill. Something I know will get me reliable work no matter where I am. I’m not sure I can muster up enough energy to go back to school for say, accounting. What I’d really love to do is do something in computer security but I just don’t think I’m smart enough.

Maybe today isn’t the best day to decide. I’m too scattered and it’s really dreary outside. No good decisions can be made when everything seems so depressed.
