Reason for the Pause and Why I am Crazy
The reason I haven't updated in here for a few days is because I am focusing on my other blog:

That blog is actually a final project for a university course I am currently enrolled in. I need to have 21 posts written before the end of the first week of December and I am not going fast enough.

It is harder to write in there because unlike this blog, that one actually has to have some substance in order to get a good grade.

I wouldn't be worried about finishing in time except that we are leaving for Cambodia in a couple of days and I can't work on it on a family trip- it just doesn't work.

So, if you want to see updated blog posts you can look there for now. When I get that done and finish up FINALS I will tell you about Cambodia.

Then... on December 30, 2009 I Will Finally Graduate

Yes... sadly I am 38 and finally getting my Bachelors Degree. Sigh.

But let me tell you- I am going to party. Even if I am all by myself.

I'm going to dance crazy and scream "It's OVER!!" out the window and throw stuff...

and turn up the music tooo loud so the neighbors complain and... and... ya....stuff like that....

Do I have thoughts about going back for my Masters???

No Way.

But... I am not out of the clear yet. I am going to study to get the A+ IT Certification.

After that though... I'm done.

I'm only going to read stupid fluff novels and watch hours of stupid TV....

....this is my burned out brain speaking....

I'll let you know when my true self returns- although it may be too late for that.

How Did The President Pass By in the Time it Took Me To Blink
This is a photo of my son Conner (blue coat) waiting to see the Obama with his fellow classmates. The school is across the street from our house and so all of the children came out to see Mr. Obama's motorcade pass by today. Hmmm... I know he was in one of the limos.... which one... I don't know.





Posted by Picasa See that guy there standing up? Not him. I think he was in the limo with the flags. Pretty sure cause I talked to the guards on the street about it.

So on to the next exciting thing to do in my life....

stare at the wall.... twiddle my thumbs....play yo yo.....

all about the same excitement level as the motorcade with the invisible president.

No. Its OK I wasn't really expecting much.

And afterwards I took Conner to Seattle's Best Coffee for cocoa and doughnuts.

He deserved it because he just got straight A's.... and OK I'll tell you the real reason for our little date- I missed his awards ceremony this morning where they honored him for it.

OK I slept through it.

Don't worry. I'm slapping my own hand...So you don't need to do anything to me. I already know.
