Taking over the world and other fun stuff ...

Pinky: Gee, Brain, what do you want to do tonight?
Brain: The same thing we do every night, Pinky - try to take over the world!

So, I haven't been plotting to take over the world, but I have been plotting to return to college and get a second Bachelor's, and maybe even a Master's degree.  WVU has an Applied Environmental Microbiology major that really fits what I want to do.  Finally!  I'm 50 and I know what I want to be when I grow up .... I want to be an environmental scientist who hikes around the wilderness, collects samples from field and stream, marches them back to the lab, does experiments and studies on them, writes it all up and gets paid to do it!

Wish I had understood I needed to do this with my life 30 years ago ... would have made things MUCH simpler.  And I would be that much further along in taking over the world :P


Brain: The irony of it all, Pinky. Years of trying to take over the world, and all I had to do was say "moo".
