Favorite: 5 Careers My Mother Wishes I Pursued

5. Surgeon
This was when I was in late elementary/early middle school. She thought it would be smart in case she needed anything done.

4. Writer
I think it's because she saw a psychic when I was a wee lad. The two things the psychic told her about what I would become are 1} I will have a temper, and 2} I would become a writer in television.

3. Radiology Technician
Good money and she had an "in" from one of her customers.

2. Actor/Model
Because of my obvious charm, my wit, and my kick-ass portrayal of Petruchio in the 6th grade.

1. Pharmacist
Because why wouldn't a pill pusher find their job adventurous and fulfilling?

1. They enjoyed spending their days at school conversing about what color thongs they saw hanging out of the 14 year olds' pants during geometry class. I did not.

*NOTE: Had I told everyone that my first live music concert was Ricky Martin, this would be the #3 reason on my list. However, either I didn't tell them or they didn't put that together.
