I'm sorry to inform you that you have 'Spoiled Brat Syndrome'. The only cure is to cut yourself off from your parents and get a job. Call me in about 3 years and we'll have your follow up.

As for some non-psychobabble wisdom, Dibble, as usual, is right on.

Well, actually that was almost precisely what the professional psychobabbler said.  In fact I was rather disappointed she didn't try harder.  Any grouch could've said 'get a job' - didn't need the psychology degree.

Well, perhaps you should follow up on that advice.

NO way!

There's nothing saying you can't pick a job that you'd enjoy. I enjoy my job, and my mom enjoys hers. Many people actually like working at their jobs. Find something that interests you, and make a job out of it.

I don't see how I could derive a job from my hobby!

LOL. It was just a joke. Maybe I should have used a smiley.

Anyways, opebo - don't you have any other interests?

I think your head is totally screwed up, Miss Catholic, but I'm no psychiatrist.  I can give you the number of mine, if you're interested.  I will say that I think he's more screwed up than either you are or I am.

I once visited a psychiatrist, back in graduate school, in hopes of convincing her I was crazy and needed disability subsidies (one of those periods the parents weren't forking over reasonably).  A friend had just gotten it for herion addiction, so I thought I might get some for general lackadaisicalness.  Well, I explained how I'd never had a job, couldn't 'handle' work, was afraid to take my car in to have the oil changed, etc., and towards the end of our hour she asked me - I thought in a rather sneering tone - 'do you come from a rich family?'  I probably should have lied, but she had me.  No disabilty.

LOL.  I'm beginning to enjoy Opebo's posts a lot more lately.
