Change of Venue?

Being between jobs like I am, I've had some time to think about what I'd really like to do with myself. Computers is great and all, but it don't really turn my crank no more. I love technology; just today I spent hours messing with GPS software. But it's moved more into the Hobby section of my brain.

So what then? I have this (two year) degree in computer networking and information technology. Should I build upon it? Try to divert it into something else? I didn't even have the money to pay for that schoolin', how am I going to get anymore?

If I can be honest for a moment, I'd love to be a masseur. I have awesome hands after all, and I think they'd be good at massaging muscles instead of keyboards all day. I like people, and I like helping them. I especially like helping naked people who are paying double-digit dollars an hour for my services. I bet it'd be lots of a fun and pretty damn satisfying to be directly bettering the lives of my fellow human beings.

I don't think it's very likely though. Even though there is an accredited massage therapy school (based on the principles of Edgar Cayce!) in my area, and even though there is a bus route that would take me nearly to the front door and back for $1.50. *sigh* Maybe it'll work out. And maybe monkeys will fly out of my butt.

Whatever happened to indentured servitude? "Hey Mr. Spaman, if you help put me through massage school I'll work for you for three to five years." That'd be pretty cool, even though according to Wikipedia the system has a whole bunch of flaws.

Anyone interested?

Oooh, the whole course is actually cheaper than I thought...
