Not a boring post at all. Sometimes it helps to vent and have someone to listen. We can't do very much to help with the practicalities, unfortunately. But we can listen very well.
Tell me about the GRE? is it? I was looking into studying for another career the other day. Psychology or theology would be fascinating for me, and satisfy my desire to do something meaningful with my life. Unfortunately, I just don't have the money to start over. I'm not sure I have the braincells either. And, as with my dream of being an elementary school teacher, I have to accept that my difficulty in interpersonal relationships would make a career as a psychologist or a pastor unfeasible. So my search for a dream job continues. Even if it is just a dream.
So I'm jealous of you. Your future ahead of you. A job that means something to look forward to. All those paths not taken haven't limited your possibilities yet. All those paths taken haven't limited your possibilities either. I would do anything to go back in time and get a degree in a different area.
What area of psychology are you interested in pursuing? Unless I have you mixed up with someone else. Didn't you say you were interested in research psychology? If not, ignore my ramblings and forgive my memory. I blame it on the meds (thank heavens for meds to blame it on).
