I've been thinking and thinking that I don't have many people to talk and/or with so I'm kind of a conversant brain--isolated at home while Mr. H is out playing with his modeler friends and his model airplanes.
I watched an interesting to me but terribly uninteresting or so it seemed to Mr. H movie. It was the "Duchess". It had a reasonably "happy" ending as told in words at the end of the movie. It also was full of children, money, politics and sex and it was set in distant time. Since it was colorful and seemed kind of a "just" movie. I did like it. It was a kind of "class" versus "duty" versus "freedom" versus woman versus man versus woman type movie with spectacular scenery from I would guess England. Although I do not know for sure.
Any how, it brought me back to my education. What is education worth to a woman or to a man? That is hard to quantify.
YTG showed up to exchange his hotrod for our more conventional car in order to pursue his way in this world. He will interview for jobs and he will graduate this June 13th to be specific.
Hopefully all will go well for him in this world. But what a time to graduate. I expect he may have to pursue more education. This sort of thing happened to me, too. No jobs for myself upon my graduation from college so I went back for more with a loan and a part-time job. Then I was a "success" with a teaching position and a student loan that was forgiven in part for every one of the two years I lasted in the profession. I repaid that loan in about five years after I received my credential by doing clerical work that required no higher education. Ah life, it is full of irony.
