The Big Debate

I have been having an ongoing debate with myself for the past 3 years. I have a bucket list of things that I want to accomplish before I die. On that list is to eventually get a PhD, because I love to learn, I am a masochist, and because I would love to put doctor at the end of my name. I am thinking that psychology would be the best choice because I find the human mind absolutely fascinating and because I would have a degree on how to go about poking holes in other peoples psyche. Unfortunately for me getting a higher degree than the bachelors degree I already have will not help my career at all so I am left making a choice, do I jump and do something completely different and go back to school after the wedding before I Mr. Rogue and I begin a family OR do I get married have a family and worry about completing my degree once my children are more grown and don’t need me as much. What a perfect time to take on a new challenge when I am in a part of my life where people usually have hard empty nest issues. As you may be able to tell I think I am leaning toward the second option. My only worry is that by delaying this particular goal that it may be difficult and a little unconventional being a 60 year old and going back in college, but I can rock unconventional.
