Clarification.

My back-up plans for life, you know, in case the incredibly secure and high-demand (sarcasm) art history industry collapses:

1. Open cupcake, coffee, and speciality tea shop.
positives:
- cute wall decorations
- good excuse if gain excess weight
- be my own well-fed boss
-frosting
negatives:
- involves math, business, and baking
- financial investor?
- excess weight gain

2. Attend air traffic controller school, become certified.
positives:
- will make BANK
- impressive stories for cocktail hour
- power, like that of God's
negatives:
- involves math
- high stress
- good chance I'd crash two planes together
- long hours
- most likely to be placed in Nowhere, North Dakota

3. Open my own vintage clothing and thrift store.
positives:
- be my own fashionably dressed boss
- best pick of the litter
- be surrounded by things I love
- optional store cat in sunny front window
negatives:
- financial risks
- business skillz, of which I lack
- customer pet allergies
