Instead I wandered over to Lackawanna College and picked up their admissions catalog.
Upon a nervous phone call in which I called my mom and said I was thinking of going back to school and she had to say something encouraging before I did something moronic like throw away the paperwork, she said if I found a way to pay for my classes, she'd pay for my books.
Okay ... um.
I AM NOT ALLOWED TO TALK MYSELF OUT OF IT.
And I realized on the way home that it is seriously not the school thing that's bothering me. I'm actually kind of excited at the thought of classes and homework and tests and papers, and I really do think that I can handle it around my job. It's the money. It's totally the money. This isn't like last time, where the loans and grants and whatnot were handled by my father and it was some distant thing I didn't even have to see. *I'M* taking care of it this time, and I think we all know how calmly and rationally I deal with anything remotely dealing with money.
But, yeah. I might be a college student again. Uh. *whimpers*
