Back to School?

I went to a state-wide apprenticeship conference for a couple of days (for work) this past week. Two of the hour-long seminars I attended were on State Statutes and Administrative code. We talked about case studies for different situations including appeals of dismissals. I freaking LOVE the case studies, and it makes me want to go to law school.

I've always loved law classes, I took several as an undergrad. There is something so stimulating about predicting the outcome, and arguing for one side or the other. I miss school now that I've been gone for so long.

I have a pretty good gig with my job, but with a LAW degree, I would probably have a better career in the long run. Everyone near the top has a Master's at MINIMUM.

It first occurred to me to go to grad school about 4 years ago. If I had done it then, I would be finished by now.

That's the hardest part, the time commitment. I could meet some one, get married and have a baby within the next four years. Or not. And if I just keep waiting, I may NEVER live my life or do or accomplish anything because I just keep sitting around waiting.

I need to look into whether or not work will pay for part of this endeavor. It's always scary to take the leap, but I need to keep moving forward. Maybe this is JUST the thing!
