I'm doing 36 things
It was not worth all of the pain and agony I put myself through. My advice: just do it. If you don’t like the results, retake it. But the hardest part is actually taking the test. It’s pretty easy and I scored way higher than I needed. Certainly not worth all the time I spent dreading it.

I don’t have cable or even watch much TV at all, but several years ago I had several friends of mine who told me I needed to watch this show. So, I rented some from Blockbuster and fell in love. I stopped renting, and bought every episode in the series. I’ve watched them in order, random order, and still love them just as much as when I first bought them. I’ve never regretted purchasing them—they’re great pick me ups or just to laugh with friends.
This is directly related to my taking an acting class goal that I’ve finally signed up for. They told me that my acting instructor will give me direction on where best to begin with the community theatre. I can’t believe that I’ve waited 20 years to do this, but it’s better late than never. I’ve begun to realize that making excuses and saying it’s too late is not getting me anywhere. So, acting, here I come!
