Pre-entry is complete. I feel SO much more ready for school now. I’m kind of in awe that such a program was available to me, and that the past five weeks went by so quickly. The gears in my head are now turning. Props to Rachel and to my tank group for getting me through the rough patches.

Immunizations are done; now I just need to turn in the form.

SYTYCD declared a winner; I was pleased. Now what will I do on Wednesday and Thursday nights? (Oh, right. Study.)

We have registered and paid for retreat. Costumes have been decided. I have gone from 100% old, fogy, stick in the mud, “I’m not going to retreat” to a somewhat matronly, “I’ll go and even dress up, but no drunken debauchery.” Should be fun. And hey, if it’s a big Fish Camp-esque disappointment, there is, as Joel pointed out, much value in shared experiences.

I’m so excited because my family will be here next week! It has been too long!

Y’all noticed that ZoeTube went live, right? Much gratitude to Zoe’s Daddy, Aunt Ali, and Nana!
