I liked drawing more than anything else but unless you are really good at it and lucky, engineering pays better. Now it is a really dusty hobby that I don't do that often. Back in highschool I did a lot of illustrating for our books. Had a really nice set of rapidographs. I learned my photoshop by scanning stuff in and cleaning it up in there.

When I was applying for colleges, I got accepted at Virginia Tech as an art major. And I got accepted at the school I went to as a music major. I should have gone with art there as well.

It was apparent by Theory II that I had no business in the music department, so I sort of floundered with majors and ended up with a Speech degree because it was the closest I could get to journalism. But it wasn't close enough to get me a job. It did eventually help me get to politics and gubmint...sigh...

So, I want to mesh the writing and art together and have music and drama on the side. And I want someone to pay me a six figger income to do it.

And I want to live at the beach.

And that's all I want. And nothing more.

Except this ashtray...
