Now what?

I have been done with the Bar for a little over a week now.  I don’t really know how it went.  I felt I left myself on the paper and, really, that is the best I could do.  I find out November 22 if I have to do this whole insanity again.  I won’t be surprised either way.

But what is pervasive about my life now, is that it seems to be asking me, now what?  I am officially done with education.  All that I have been doing for the past 22 plus years is over.  I left for Miami, like a bat out of hell, but I am not even sure what I was running from.  I don’t know how to do anything but be a student.  Now I am opening myself up to this giant abyss of, now what?

I start work on Wednesday and that is it.  I am an adult with a nine to five job.  Well, technically it is 7:30 to who knows when, but you get the gist. I am excited to start work but this will be the first time where work has been my sole focus. No school going on in the background constantly. I have an itch to be working towards something.

Apparently this is quite normal for Bar takers.  We have been so focused and working so hard and then all of a sudden its over.  I suppose it must be like being let out of jail.  I have all this time that I get to choose what do with.  How weird is that?

Today I had a day completely to myself and I did errands all. day. long.  Attending to things that have been sorely neglected for the past six months. I finally got my hair trimmed properly.  I no longer look like a hot mess.  Or, at least, I look like I know how to groom myself.

I have been sleeping like it is some delicious drug, nine hours a night.  I read a book, for fun!  I didn’t even know I was still capable of doing that.

So, now what? I am not a lawyer.  I am not a law student.

Without further ado, here are some pics of my somewhat up in the air life.
