Marginalia, Entry 3

I set up my ABLE account last night, which is all fine and good, but I don't know how I'm going to get money to put in it.

I'm going through mental options to go into a career that makes money. Some ideas are:

- Waldorf teacher
- CPA
- Something in the trades?
- Train conductor

I could be a librarian, but that isn't as predictable, I think. I don't know what a good idea would be, and I feel like there's something I'm missing.

Week 13, Entry 5

The reason I was thinking about how Malcolm described me is because I just finished a book today which had very little in the way of a plot, it was mostly just descriptions of characters and how they viewed one another, how they worked with one another or didn't, their shared histories, although not all of it was revealed to the reader.

I'm debating trying to describe myself like that, because I can feel myself calcifying into "what is my family role?" and I think that will prove unhealthy. If I can describe it as separate from myself, I think that will help me understand myself a bit more. It will be an interesting experiment either way.
