Here I go exploring a new version of me.  Still painting and having some luck with sales and commissions but it doesn't fill up my day. Whoever touts retirement sure doesn't live in my head.

I notice the local public defender is advertising for "interns" so I inquire.  "Does this mean being 20 and wearing a beanie."  No they say.  Maybe this is a way I can use all knowledge I learned hanging around police departments......Back up...I was never arrested but I did spend 20+ years learning the processes and designing computer systems for law enforcement agencies.  The jargon is all familiar, I know what data they capture, how they store it and how they use it....perhaps there's a fit. So I apply and am accepted.  They still haven't mentioned a beanie, we'll see.
