I'm going to visit my Dad this weekend! He lives in a different part of the country, so I usually only see him once a year, and this will be my yearly visit.
He'll be celebrating his 80th birthday on Saturday! I suppose he is an old man then - we just never think about him as an old man Apart from a sore knee, he's quite fit, and he loves gardening. I expect there will still be some roses around his garden. His younger brother and sister are coming for the celebrations as well, so there will be a family gathering!

Well, technically I have a (Dutch!) diploma that allows me to call myself Engineer (in Environmental Sciences).
Truth be told I also wish I had gotten the education and expertise that should go with that title... No wonder they quit offering this course two years later... > <

Congrats Mari BA!
I am happy because my radio show was way fun and I'm excited to do another soon. I think I'm going to play more electronica next time. It's fun to play stuff really loud in the studio. |

Speaking of which: the second reader of my thesis speeched for me and he was going on and on on how special my thesis was and how impressive etc. but I couldn't stop wondering why I didn't get higher than a 6,7 if it really was that great and impressive I guess I'm a critical/cynical listener.

Congrats, Mari BA! *throws diploma-shaped confetti*
Happy - just got back from the neurosurgeon, and my son doesn't need to have back surgery at this time, and most likely never will! (for this particular condition, at least)

Have a wonderful time, Nel! Can you get an internet connection where you'll be so you can wave to us from Morocco?

I thought it was close to impossible. The subject is impossible. But, I made a B on my test so HA! YAY! I'll add some more of these:

Thanks
I was expecting a C, you know, being me and all, terrible at math, but I got a B, and for that, I am very happy Anyone remember a couple months ago, and my struggles with geometry? eh, probably not, but I thought that was bad. This is a lot harder. But I just proved that I cando it
