After an eventful few weeks, and a full 25+ years, I’m experiencing a weird new thing called “free time”. While sitting on the couch watching Frasier without an ounce of guilt, it occurred to me that this is the first time in my life I’ve not had some enormous event looming on the horizon. After graduating from college I spent my days commuting a few hours to work and doing long-distance wedding planning. The following year was consumed with GRE prep and graduate school applications. Then came the grad program.
So here I idly sit, a little unnerved but quite content. (It is a little like the feeling I get after a migraine has passed.) I’m grateful for the opportunity to attempt Spanish conversation classes, a full marathon, and ballet for old fogeys in the coming year. But for now, I’m happy to sit with my hubby, post some pictures on the blog, and go to bed before 1am. :)
Jeremy may be more relieved than I am that I'm finished:
It was wonderful to share commencement with my mom and dad, little sissy and my future bro-in-law.
Done and done.
