Well, I feel a whole lot better today. Steph the Sage spent about half an hour working just on my neck and shoulders yesterday. And there’s still a knot in my neck. She was at a loss. She said my neck and shoulders were worse than hers. I’ll take that as a very bad sign. But whatever she did, it worked. It is much less painful today. And I slept pretty comfortably last night. But you just don’t realize how much pain you were in until it’s not there anymore. It’s amazing what we can get used to. Hence the title of the post.

After my rub down and chakra re-alignment, I headed up to the college to have my academic chakra checked out. Since I’m switching jobs, my bosses want me to have my bachelor’s degree. Since they want to pay for me to get it, I’m complying. I didn’t really go back to college to get a degree. I went to get an education. And that’s what I’ve been getting for the past 6-ish years. Now, I need a degree. So, I met up with Dr. J, who apparently is my new advisor, and she laid out a plan for graduation. In 3 semesters. I’ll be taking one summer class and then hammering out my other 9 classes between this coming fall and next spring. It is going to be so very brutal. But I’ll have a bachelor’s degree of “organizational leadership” with a minor in history. I’m going from a B.S. to a B.S.O.L. It’s funny.

What’s organizational leadership? It’s the degree for people who take a crap load of random classes and then decide they want to graduate. I was joking around with Zaxxon about it when he asked what it entailed. I told him that they teach me how to lead in an organized fashion. Like “Okay, everybody, form a line and follow me.” Yep. That pretty much sums it up.

Today is a day of lists. I’m working out of the house today. I’m trying to get stuff accomplished and I can’t do that from the wreck that is my office. So, the first thing on my list is “clean up office”. Then there’s a bunch of other stuff on there having to do with everything from general cleanliness to actual work stuff. It feels pretty weird not to be going to Lippincottonia today. Don’t worry, I’ll be going there tomorrow.

Well, I’ve got shit to do. I can’t just sit here typing about the stuff I need to do, I need to actually do it. Have a great day. More soon. ~SC
