I feel like I'm in a pretty good place right now and going back to school would just F all that up. Of course, I've been saying that for the last 10 years...

Yeah same with my grandma. She's a firm believer in higher education. Anyway, it's pretty awesome that both you and Madwi have managed to make it through the same gauntlet. I guess at a certain point, I just kept going because I had nothing else better to do. At that time, it never entered my mind that there might actually be light on the other side, much less success.
I dunno. Lot's of musing today on the strange twists life has for us. I really was stunned when my boss informed me. Definitely rare to have a role like this, especially relatively young.
