Inheritance

What I have to inherit is more than what I had spent my childhood dreaming about: a cubicle with a view walled in shades of gray carpeted dividers, business suits of similar array, a car, a wife, a kid, a house.
Well, I suppose it is less, in a way. At least, right now, that is. What I have discovered I am to inherit as I cross the line in the winter to the Golden Land is a family that is more there for me than I had expected. I have to admit to all you rabid readers that I am quite in shock. I am left floundering in the aftermath of a wave of ecstasy.

Turning my mind to former things – that is to say, the things that held my attention for much too long before I so graciously took my leave – I cannot help but realize that this trip was nothing more than an extended sleep for these things in that it only left them undone for the time being. The worse of it is that instead of everyone being on their own at rest, and nothing happening on either side, there are days and days that have gone by; all of which will be accounted for at one point by any one of the people involved… *sigh*
But that is for another time.

My Mother’s family has taken quite strongly to the idea of me becoming an Acupuncturist, and they have rallied around me in a shocking manner. We’ll have to wait and see how it works out in the end, but my cousin Andy is willing to partner with me already. As excited as that makes me to do what I want to do, I noticed, also, that it has loaded me down with some expectations, and in that regard, I am nervous. Still I will try to do my best. Tomorrow is my chance to get a good look at this college: Open House. Wish me luck, and I hope I can tell you all about it when I get the chance. :]
