Today’s feat of derring-do:
I passed my [final] Final exam — possibly the last Final of my undergraduate degree. I’ve been college for centuries now, slogging through countless lectures, deadlines, research papers, outrageously overpriced textbooks, performances, meltdowns, and therapists…but the end is in sight.
I feel a song coming on. Take it away, Motel Kamzoil!

This calls for ginger ale.
Any wonders in your corner of the world?
Far too many wonders to count, and you are on of them.

mum – Don’t worry about typos, I’ll fix ‘em when I spot ‘em. Behold the power of the mighty blog-owner!
hazelbutmegan – How right you are; next semester I’ll be student teaching forty hours a week, plus taking a seminar class and working as many hours as my job will allow. I expect to be very, very sleepy.

So are you going to bring your arse and Ian to live in Bloomington soon? Ian would like it here… lots of Buddhists and a Zen Dao (sp?). Plus I could use some friends…

The minute I strike gold I will pack my bags, throw Ian over one shoulder, and jog to Indiana.
