[QUOTE="Lil, post: 684586, member: 17309"] I'm not sure I was ever the ambitious, bright-eyed 20 something. I mean, intellectually I know I was. I went to college with big plans. I think after law school when the reality of paying my own way set in is when my "running away" dreams began. I used to dream of selling everything I owned, not paying a single bill when my paycheck came in, taking every penny and just driving until I was out of money and out of gas, then getting a job waiting tables or something in some little town where no one knew me and starting all over again. Once my son was born that dream was over. Part of me still wishes I'd have done it. If it weren't for Jabber, I'm not sure I wouldn't do it now. There's something so ... freeing, of thinking of about selling everything, taking my car that's paid for and just GO. Quit my job, live in a little shack on a piece of land and raise a garden and chickens, no TV, no phone, no responsibilities to anyone but myself. Heck, I'd like to just do that and go ...anywhere. Start over. The heck with my bills. They could sue me. I'd quit and find another job. Live on cash. If there's one thing I've learned from 21 years of child support hearings, it's how people manage to get away with not paying for things they legally have to. I'd like to be that irresponsible, just once. I never will be. [/QUOTE]
