A limerick:

Doesn’t look like a limerick to you? Try this:

A dozen, a gross, and a score Plus three times the square root of four Divided by seven Plus five times eleven Is nine squared and not a bit more.

I always liked math and science and wanted to be a biologist. My parents told me when I was fourteen or so that I would be good at the sciences but extraordinary in one of the social studies. I trusted them and went on to become a lawyer. I’m sure they meant well and they might even have been right (though I don’t feel extraordinary, tbh), but I have to wonder how much of their advice, even subconsciously, was based on my being female. My brother on the other hand was pushed into engineering, which didn’t suit him at all and he switched paths to business and marketing where he does very well.

My geeky tendencies continue apace. While studying law I learned to build websites and do simple programming as a hobby, and built applications that I released online and that people still use. I still love reading about the sciences, though I don’t do math problems for fun anymore. I am the go-to person in my office for technical problems, and have customized my home and office computers using apps and scripts. (I warn co-workers not to use my profile on the work computers, because seriously no one else can.) I’m satisfied with my life and career, but sometimes I wonder about what might have been.
