i know, nyla--i was agreeing with you. other people have misinterpreted what maddie wrote, i was just being polite by being vague because it really doesn't matter, does it? you need to relax, lady. when you get home tonight, you deserve a martini.

Haha...I wasn't offended or anything by your comment. I just wanted to make sure that you (and Maddie, since the post was directed toward her), got what I was saying.

I need a large quantity of alcohol hooked up to an IV and fed into my system 24/7, I think. Hehe. I am a bit on edge, aren't I? My head hurts. Time for a nap.

I don't think you should make any decision that you might regret especiallly since your husband works for the hospital. Plus if you don't have to work you might as well spend time focusing on how you want to spend the rest of your life.

I would love to get a second bachelor's degree (BFA in either jewelry design or graphic design), but I'm convinced it wouldn't get me anywhere (why should it?).

It would get you a job in jewelry design or graphic design. Why on earth would you think it wouldn't get you anywhere? design degree programs are intended to give people preparation to work in their field, nothing more. it's not like liberal arts, where you are taught a general manner of thinking and researching and writing, and gain a broad exposure to a lot of different fields, and so you wind up very open-ended in terms of the positions you can take because the actual subject you studied doesn't necessarily matter all that much (except for science/research stuff obviously). Design programs are extremely specific and extremely professionally oriented. Unless you would ONLY be interested in freelancing or working for yourself, then either degree you mentioned is a vital prereq for a job in the field.
