When Does Someone Become an Expert?

20 Feb

There is a luminous new career path waiting for me on the horizon. The pay would be phenomenal: the opportunity is such that I could possibly make more money in a month than I have made in my entire lifetime (and I have been working since I turned 16).  There are no potential interviews with strangers to blow, no awkward first meetings, and best of all, the backspace key in case the first thing out of my mouth isn’t the best.  The catch? I have to be an expert in my field.  Am I? In what field? These are the questions plaguing me as I patiently wait my application status.

In case I am approved, returning to school would more than likely not reap these kinds of benefits.  However, on the other hand, I could at long last afford to go back to school. And it’s important to me to know things, to learn, to have a backup plan.  So I went today, attempted once again to get registered. And ran into more red tape. I have to go back again on Monday, at which point they will probably tell me to return once more on Tuesday. And there will be no time for Gravy and Biscuits.

Speaking of, if I return to school, where would I fit in the blogging and the potential illustrious job?  How do people manage being an adult, paying bills, furthering education, getting out of poverty?  Time management is key; I know that.  Getting organized is half the battle.  And yet, as scared as I am to jump in feet first into all of this again, I think I am finally at a point in my life and am old enough now that I can.  At 19, I wasn’t ready. I hadn’t even been weaned enough to know anything about the outside world.  Now I have had a taste, and am unimpressed. There is greener grass somewhere, I know it!  And maybe one of these days, one day soon, I’ll have the courage and financial means to get in my car and get ready to graze.

Marital Aids: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (NSFW)

Just in time for Valentine’s Day!

I have been putting off writing this post because to the very thought of thinking about these items make me blush when it comes to bringing it to the public.  Also, the site where I thought this sort of thing might fit more appropriately died, so I have not had much of an outlet. However, since I do write lots about relationships as well as shopping, bargains, and things to buy and where, I feel I am going to have to swallow my embarrassment and move forward with this post.

So, you’ve been with your significant other for awhile, and you’re looking to spice things up in the bedroom. Or, you’re wanting to get your loved one something extra special for Valentine’s Day.  Well look no further, because I can help!  Over the next few pages, I’ll show you a little bit of everything, what it does, and why it’s good or bad.  WARNING:  I’m pretty sure you’re not going to want to continue with this post if you’re at work or under 18.  Each page is more NSFW than the next.  Do NOT continue if you know me and the thought of me talking about this will embarrass you (or me) or NSFW is not your thing!

Jebbica Gets Interviewed

9 Feb

6q

I have interviewed tons of people over the past couple of years, from musicians to reality stars to American Idol contestants.  So it was kind of cool when someone wanted to interview me!

I have been privileged to be a part of Gunaxin’s 6Qs, which features many cool bloggers and awesome people, and even though it’s a simple little silly thing, just being included with other people I admire just tickles the hell out of me.

Check out my 6Q interview on Gunaxin here.
