I have NO idea what I want to be when I grow up??

I am in my early thirties.  I feel and act like I am much younger.  I see no problems with the lifestyle choice I have made.  My husband and I are in agreement that we do not want children.  I am mature and dependable and all those important things but when it comes to planning for the future.... I got nothing.  I went to college for a few years off and on.  5 to be exact.  I never found anything that I wanted to do so I dropped out and started managing a restaurant at night.  I loved it and I loved the people.  I miss it terribly.  It got shut down during the economic shit fall of 2008.  I have worked one job since then and it was hard as fuck to even get that one.  I even stooped to the low level of telemarketing I was so desperate.  I won't do that again,  I will sell fruit on the street corner before I spend 5 hours a day getting hung up on or cussed at 80% of the time.   I guess some are destined for greatness and maybe I am too, I'm just pacing myself so I don't freak anyone out. LOL.  Someone has to do the bullshit jobs at gas stations and restaurants.  I accept the fact that it is me.  I am cool with that!  I just thought I was supposed to be doing something better.  Maybe I am, hopefully people will read this crap and realize that pretty much everyone's life sucks the same.... just at different times.  I always thought it would be cool to be a writer and since I can't do that, I will blog my heart out and hope someone sees my quick wit and awesome charm and let me write for them.  I am working on a book about how it's okay to be a nobody.  I have done it just fine for 30+ years and I am still loving life and maintaining valuable relationships while not compromising who I am or embarrassing my family.  I think that is pretty good.  I don't have any illegitimate     children, I'm not on drugs, and I even do random acts of kindness just because it feels fucking great.  My life is pretty amazing considering that some would not be able to handle my life. I love it,  so what if I have no idea what kind of job I want.  If I have learned anything; it is not WHAT you know it is WHO you know.  Sucks donkey balls but it's true.  I know some dumb-ass people that have good jobs and I promise  it's not because they are awesome workers, it's because they know someone already that works there.  Unfair if you ask me, but no one ever does.  I know because I have been one of them.  Bastards.  I'm just jealous that's all.  At least I can admit that. I will get my toe hold in the burger industry, until then I am forced to complain while sitting on my ever growing ass watching Netflix.  Loving me some movies!!
