I'm really craving change. Having traveled the world, lived in many different states, changing jobs often and having varied hobbies I've just seen soooo much that it is hard to settle for routine. Same ol' same ol' for year after year.
So I shaved my head today and am going to grow a beard. Just to do something totally radically different with my personal appearance. I don't care if most people thing I look less attractive with a shaved head. I don't care if it makes me look older. I don't care if my beard might have some gray in it and hide my strong jaw line. I just wanna do something different and changing hair is a great active/passive way to do that.
What's the difference between a good haircut and a bad one? 6 weeks.
And seriously trying to figure out the whole graduate school in Israel thing as a possibility. If you're a long term reader or know me in real life you know how I can be when I want to do something off the wall. It gets into me and I don't let it go until I'm forced to. Tenacious. ;) I mean, I went to Iraq with the idea of doing something for a year and using it to build life afterwards. This would be a better way and still keep me in that part of the world.
Now for you who like to live vicariously through me and for me by writing it down it also soothes the "change beast" inside me, here are some things I have coming up in my rowdy Rowdy life.

Your "changes" seem to always be on the extreme side, I'm more of a 'lets add this little change' and build from there. But if you do the Israel thing, wouldn't your humira (i think thats the medicine you said you are on) put the kibosh on that?
ReplyDeleteI probably am crazy. And have adult ADD. But isn't/doesn't everyone?????
ReplyDeleteHmmm, Humira. I'd have to find a place in Israel that'd fill my prescription. That would take some researching. See if Abbott Laboratories sells it there.
Oh wait, thanks Google! Abbott and its product Humira are available in Israel. The trick would be getting my HMO to still pay for it while I am there. Probably get it at a reduced rate for sure.
Hey there! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering if you knew where I could get a captcha plugin for my comment form?
