TAN #64 - A Case of Temporary InTANity (Page 45)

Where is she from? why won't she move to CO??  My BFF lives in San Diego...beautiful! I have a few friends in San Fran...never been there but here is beautiful as well!

((Need a pick me up TOPPAGE))

She is from all over.  We met in Denver and she followed me out here.  She doesn't want to go back because there is NOTHING for her there in terms of work.  Las Vegas and CA, there is acting/dancing/modeling work.  Nada in CO.  I understand.

She is starting up a wedding planning business.  If that takes off, she could do that back in CO.  I would probably like to move to Boulder, though.

I don't plan to either.  Unless I'm forced to.

I'm not going anywhere for a while.  Durn it.

That's pretty much how I feel.

Ahh...makes sense. See...I plan on being a Professor and I have been checking out their Universities and Colleges and it seems very culturally diversed which is what I'm looking for!

Just to rehash my list (and modify it a little):

1. Sea-kittehs are delicious. Along with cows and chickens and pigs and sheep and other animals that are not goggies or kittehs.
2. I lof gay men.
3. I also lof Jebus.
4. Keep abortion legal and safe. Work at educating people properly about being responsible, so abortions will be less frequent.
5. Milk is gross.
6. Go Obama.

After seeing Lisa's list, I had to modify #4 a bit to make it a bit more clear.

And that's all you need to know

What color is it?  Green?  Yellow?

oh my gosh i think i want to be a professor too!  and i want to live in san fransisco, my fave city in the WHOLE WORLD.

i think i want to work for 2 or 3 more years, then go to grad school and stay in academia forever, doing contract work like my profs did.  the teachers i had that inspired me the most were the ones that actually DID chemical engineering, not the ones that sat around and thought about it all the time.  i want to be the next dr. enick!

I think that is an interesting perspective coming from a very vocal christian, no? I don't want to turn this into a debate thread... I just think it's interesting.

I would love to teach.  I think I even could.  But I'm not going back to school for a PHD to get the credentials...  Sorry.

i dunno.  i'm definitely pro-choice, but i think abortion is murder, if that makes any sense.

My grad degree was in Lit. Not much of a "practical" aspect there, since it wasn't a writing degree - most professors in those kinds of sujects have published scholarly materials/books, but that's different. So none of them were "uninspiring" to me. They were all much smarter than I was, so that was enough. Some were not great instructors, but that's different. I don't have enough of a background to teach - if I had a Lit/English undergrad degree, and then had gone onto grad school and really specialized in one particular genre only, in a PhD program, it'd be a different story.

what/where do you want to teach?  i bet there are community colleges that need calc teachers and don't require a PhD.  requirements depend on the state, i think, but you should look into it.  i've considered going that route just for practice, but i think in VA i need a Masters (in anything).

there was only one woman in the ChE dept at Pitt and she didn't teach.  bleh.

I have no desire to stay in academia.  It is not a job I would be happy with.  The grant situation in science is horrible.

I think it does... you two are a rare breed in that sense. At least in my experience with religious people. Which may be skewed a bit.

So it's kind of like... If I think "meat is murder", but support someone else's choice to eat it if they want to?
