Guidence Counselor

I sit here tonight avoiding balancing my check book and looking at my bills, it will only depress me. So what do I do I watch a lifetime network movie??? That makes sense right? I get caught on these things b/c I will see a famous actress and think oh it can't be that bad. I saw Kirstin Dunst in one movie called 15 and Pregnant and I think I stayed up til 1am watching this cheesetackular movie. Well tonight I am watching Gracie's Choice b/c Kristen Bell is in it. (So is Anne Heche but I figure Lifetime movies are whats next for her-sorry to be mean)
Its about a woman (Anne) and her 5 children with 5 baby daddy's. Her eldest, Gracie (Kristen), who winds up taking care of her half siblings taking parental custody from her mom. So in the course of Gracie's life she bounces around a lot and is just over looked everywhere. I know this is for dramatic effect well it worked.
I was watching her interaction with these counselors and I have been trying to think about what I want to do when I grow up and I think I have decided some form of counselor is it. I want to help people, I have been told that I can look at things objectively (I realize this only happens when I look at something that is not about me!) and people talk to me. I have found that I am the person who keeps being told things.
I am not complaining about this its just odd sometimes. When this woman at work pulls me aside to complain about our boss which I don't do b/c I like him and was odd b/c she is new and we don't talk. So now I have this information and I want fix it, you know talk to the boss man about it because there appears to be a huge problem with this particular co-worker and my question is does anyone else know? Shouldn't this be fixed. Yes I am a fixer.
So I think I want to go back to school for my masters in a form of counseling. I don't know if that will by guidance b/c I don't really want to deal with all the drama of schools but I would like to help. Maybe I figure it out in school. Now to figure out how to get paid for this school b/c otherwise I cannot afford it. And to figure out if I can even take classes, with the monster my time is precious. I have been thinking about this for a while and now I am thinking about waiting until he is a bit older and can be home on his own. But now that I know what I want I don't want to wait. Oh the issues and it all came out of a ridiculous movie. Awesome right?
