I've contemplated posting this, but gosh darnit I will. I have survived my first semester of college. Exams are over and I am done until the middle of January. Everyone is really cool and I'm actually learning a lot. Now I can sit back and drink all day. ;)

Cam, if I see you at a race you'll probably be getting cookies or brownies or something of the sort.

If it makes you feel better WB, my kids asked me Sunday if I knew there was an OLD show on TV that had John Travolta in it? That really made me feel O-L-D, I used to watch Welcome Back Kotter in high school and even did imitation of the sweathogs at pep rallies!! :cry:

Gosh...when was 7G started again? There were some good times there. Back when I was FittipaldiNut.

And as for freshman 15...how about freshman -2? My weight has been up-and-down a few pounds, but currently I weigh about 2 pounds (not a significant amount) less than when I started the wear. It's hard since I'm in cooking school, but I just try to watch what I eat and go running. If the sidewalks aren't too bad later I plan on going out running outside instead of on the treadmill.

DM, didn't you recently turn 50 or something? :rofl: ;)

I'm taking everything from actual cooking to nutrition to basic math and english courses. Here's a link to the program at my school: http://matcmadison.edu/matc/ASP/showprogram.asp?ID=2934. It's a two-year course so I'll be done there in 2007, but I don't know if I'll go on to another place or not. Something I'll have to think about.

Thanks for all of your well wishes. :)

Yeah, Nicole, the real world is a whole different place.

Regarding finals, every now and then, like every year or two, especially if I'm stressed for some reason, I have a recurring dream. I'm back in college and I just KNOW that some class I'm in has a test today, but I don't have my schedule with me and I can't even remember where the class meets or if I've attended a session at all. Or, it's finals week and I don't know where one of them is being given. Then, I wonder if I'm ever going to get out of here (graduate) and actually SEE what the real world is. Then, I wake up, take a deep breath, pet my dog, realize that I'm in the real world now, and go back to sleep. True story.
