Tonight Tigran and I were discussing who determines if people are successful. In the end I think we both just wound up deciding that people have to determine their own successfulness (I don't think this is a word). For instance I consider my brother and sister-in-law very successful. They both work at the nursery and seem to enjoy their job. They have a nice house with a farm and many pets. But then I think about other high school friends who have bachelor's degrees, homes, and are married. I also think they are successful but not any more or less than my brother and his wife. Then I think about Tigran and I. We have a nice apartment, both have college degrees and are working on others, and are married. We decided that we are successful. We don't have a house though or any permanancy as of now. When looking at my other college friends, I think we are all about in the same boat. I guess this rambling all ends up that as long as you find yourself successful you are.
On another note, Tigran and I were responsible today and went and bought life insurance and opened a savings account at our bank. We always deal with a lady named Theresa who is really nice and informative because she is only a few years older than us so she can relate to our place in life thus far. Tigran just chimed in that she is kind of hot but has a weird nose. (I have never noticed this nose but I don't think she is hot). However after knowing his opinion on her body...we are finding a new bank! j/k.
We had homemade cheese pizza tonight which was great because it was made of leftovers so it felt like it was free. Its amazing how when you are paying bils how euphoric "free" sounds! Alright well that's enough for now.

Becky, I agree with your assessment of success. I think it's about setting personal and professional goals for yourself and then meeting them.
I am still saving up money to go to the grocery store (haha!) so we are down to fish sticks and tarter sauce for the next few meals. :)
