Times, They are a' Changin'

Snapshot:

Rennratt, Northern Maine, circa 1979: Towhead blond, pudgy. Likely rolling in the dirt and watching Bruce Lee movies with the equally towheaded and pudgy boy from across the street.

Dream Job: Truck driver.

Dream look: Didn't care.


Fast forward...

Nooze, Eastern North Carolina, Today: Sandy blond hair, 4'3", slim. Likely wearing fake nails, slip on sandals with heels...and clothes that sparkle.

Dream Job: Masseuse and Veterinarian. [Yes. She wants to be both.]

Dream Look: Mass tattoos. Initial tattoo to be a Pegasus, flying upward. Through flames.

Note to self: Stop watching LA Ink with your daughter...

That sounds like a pretty nice dream job.

And the pegasus with the flames might help horses she treats be less nervous at the doctor...

:D

There are a lot of nervous animals at the Vets office that I'm sure would benefit from a massage.

Aunt Tracy is more than willing to encourage ALL those dreams, and didn't you know that there are Vetrinary Masseuses? For serious.
