I’m 25

Well, I’m officially 25.  Yesterday was my birthday and now I’m a quarter of a century old.  I had a good birthday.  My parents and sisters got me exactly what I asked for and my mom cooked one of my favorite meals.  Not only that, but it was sunny, warm, and the Cardinals won.  A good day all around.

As I look back at the last couple years since college, and we all tend to look at ourselves a little more harshly around birthday time, I do realize I’m not where I want to be with my life.  The job I have is not the job I want (or need).  The people here are great, but it’s not the teaching position that I wanted to get into as soon as I got out of college.  In order to get a high school position, I may have to move.  I’ve been thinking about going back to Springfield.  I know the schools and the area to an extent, so it shouldn’t be hard to adjust.  I would rather go to Springfield than Kansas City (even though several of my college friends now live there).  I couldn’t live with Royals baseball.  Cardinals all the way!  Anyway, I have got to find a position somewhere for next school year.  Cross your fingers and hope I find something because I’m 25 now.  Too old to still be here.
