Howdy! I noticed you just friended me (via LJ's notification system thingy) and thought I'd come over and say hello!
Hello!
RE: Your degree; My husband is a journalist and graphic designer with a Math major and Ancient Greek minor, so stranger degree/career combinations have happened. Personally, if you're a designer, I think you need a psychology degree, because I've found any sort of client relations success means you're part counsellor to your client. So good show.
I've had the same problem with LJ and real life as the one you mention. It's very very addicting!
And seriously, you can plaster? You're welcome to come visit Massachussetts and teach me how! I've got an old house and plaster that I'd rather fix than take it down and put up drywall.
Welcome to one of the most addictive communities ever!
Oh, um, I'm 42, grew up in Georgia, now live in New England with my adorkable husband, two cats and a 150 year old house I keep fiddling with. I'm in the process of renovating my kitchen, upstairs bathroom and driveway. I meant just to be doing the kitchen. Things were discovered that needed fixing, alas. I love imagining the projects and planning them, but the mess and the money is sometimes kinda stressful.
I have two cats, write, sew and make jewelry. Sadly, I'm not doing much creative work right now because I hurt my back badly a couple of years ago and am still straightening that out. Thank god for LJ, or I'd be mad. I also act, sing and can bark well enough to freak out my kitties. I hear I also do a pretty good camel imitation.
