Life in General, and Other Matters

This newsfeed of mine on Facebook is just too important to let it get buried there:

Jennifer Payne doesn't know what she wants out of life.

Jennifer Payne [groans... no... I was being serious:] But is it a family? Is it a job? What kind of job? Is it just living for myself? Or is it living for others? There is a balance somewhere... I have a job... a good job... but I don't think this is what I was meant to do... go to work, make money, have fun... that's all? What I want to know is what happened to my idealism about doing something great after college. Why did it die so fast? Like the month after I graduated.

Jennifer Payne suspects it had something to do with those darned awful things called dollars.

[For you non-facebookers out there, newsfeeds are little one-liners that you write about yourself and how or what you're doing at any given moment. They can be great comment/discussion generators sometimes. And a good place to rant and rave.]

Actually, I had a lovely Sunday. We heard from my brother... and had a family dinner at my Aunt and Uncle's house in Monroe. And my, was it a feast! Hamburgers, ribs, all the sides you can think of, and strawberry shortcake for dessert. It was a nice time visiting. And when we got home, we watched MASH and "The Thin Man", which I just loved! (none of us guessed who done it, btw) A friend came over to watch the movie with us, and afterwards he admitted to watching ALL of the rest of Remember WENN online this week. And he read my sister's fanfiction... and he is going to read mine... Holy cow! How incredibly cool!

I guess I'm just at that "undecided" point in my life. I hear it's rather natural for someone my age.
