one little chickie has flown the coop



Well, more or less, anyway. We deposited the eldest son
into his new, not-so-swanky digs Sunday. A dorm room
will always be a dorm room, but especially so when it's
occupied by four young men, yes?

The stinkweed has yet to e-mail me, but we've been
texting (YES, Rhonda and Kris, TEXTING) periodically.

He's already decided to change his meal plan--cafeteria
food will always be cafeteria food . . .

Missouri Science and Technology. Rolla. It's hard to tell from the tiny pic I blatantly stole from their site.

Phil, I thought about you when he was taking circuits last semester--for some reason, I remember you hanging out in our room studying for a circuits test!

Christina, he's 20 (graduated from community college--straight A last semester, secretary of honor society, all that), so it's strange not having him around, but it didn't make me cry. He's a big boy. If he were 17, I'd be a little more concerned!

Yep that was my major. Hopefully he A) actually uses his degree, and B) doesn't take nine years getting it.

Dude.

The Parental Funding Foundation has mandated a two year limit upon the MS&T "experience."

Exclamation point, and amen.
