It sounds like you're definitely ready - and it sounds really exciting!

My company does tuition reimbursement, too ... I really want to look into whether I might be able to apply it to the Bennington College MFA in writing ... it's a really interesting programme that might do me a lot of good, and which arguably applies to my job.

(paralegal stuff is great. Get your notary's license as part of it, and you're career-set forever!)
