Changing blogs!

Hey Matthew!  I'm moving to Wordpress.  I don't have to have a Google account and I can be "Yamheister", a title I like much better than "Skeletone" (which is taken at wordpress, by the way).  So check me out at yamheister.wordpress.com.  It's yamtastic.

Skeletone

 Why "Skeletone"?  Because all names are taken.  Add an "e" and you're in business.

I was a steel detailer.  I didn't like it, but the environment was great.  I feel almost like the last five years of my life were just a hiccup.  I was going to school for elementary education and *hic* I was a steel detailer for five years *hic* and now I'm going back to school... but for what?  Here's the dilemma:  I need inspiration.  I need a spark to get going on the right path.  I love art.  I love native plants.  I find science interesting.  I am way behind the math curve.  I was thinking about going to school for horticulture, but it seems like careers in horticulture mean little money down the line.  I want to go to Texas A&M, and they have an excellent horticulture college, and I might be able to get into it.  However, there is money in biochemistry.  If I can reanimate my math abilities, I may have a shot at eventually getting into the science college at A&M if I can vanquish the foe of my GPA circa 2005.  The science college requires a 3.0 GPA on 24 hours of transferrable coursework.  If that means a 3.0 on all my courswork that will transfer, it may not happen.  If it means any 24 hours, then I have a shot, because I'm moving from a very non-science degree program to a heavy science/math degree.  We'll see.
