well, here I am, in eastern Montana sitting in a of about 400 people contemplating exactly what my time on the injured list haas taught me. I think in the month or so I have been sitting on my ass I have discovered that I'm not content to spend the rest of my life as a welder, I find it to be a noble, challenging and interesting profession, however my work environment consists of people blah'ing about tits and beer all day, in short the environment is stagnating. I have a desire to go back to school and learn, but honestly, I have no idea hwow I would REALLY do in an academic environment, my last stint of community college did'nt go all that swimmingly, but I can't help but wonder if perhaps that was because I did'nt have a goal. I'm really kinda loss as to what to do.. I'm 25, I know people have done it at 35 and even 45, but shit, stress is not something I'm partial to.

I really dunno, theres all sorts of other crap floating around in my head too, but I still have this draw to go back and learn some more.

I'm selling myself short if I stay where I am.
