ta da!

Yes, it's true. I really have, finally, graduated. For years I have been styling myself as the "most educated, least degreed" person I know, thanks to my years and years of graduate work without a conclusive event (i.e., the receiving of an actual graduate degree). But no longer, because now I actually have a graduate degree. It's not quite the one I expected, earlier in my life. On the other hand, an MBA means you have learned some things that people will actually pay you to know, which makes for a nice contrast with linguistics.

I have many plans to fill up the empty hours ahead, now that I won't be sitting through three hours of Finance class on a Monday night, or eight hours of Strategies of Growth on a Saturday. The months ahead will include:

• Training the dogs for Good Canine Citizen certification.
• Setting up a Torah study website for the temple. I already have a design in my head.
• Planning the vegetable garden ahead of time this year.
• Organizing the basement, so I have room for
• Making Art.
• Translating Crónica de una Muerte Anunciada (because I happen to have a copy and it seems as a good a way as any to practice Éspañol).
• Writing more.
• And of course, vacuuming. And working to pay off that student loan.

Congratulations!!!!

Having skills that you don't mind using that people will actually pay you for is quite excellent.

We need to have lunch. :-)
