I just filed for graduation this Autumn Quarter. By the end of this year, I’ll have a degree.

Woo Hoo!! That’s awesome! I know how excited I was when I was done.

So what are your plans after that? Does this mean there’ll be a wedding this Fall? I thought I remembered reading that you were waiting until after you graduated.

Awesome. Nice going, Libby.

You gotta dump the Bills, though. It looks bad on a resume.

Blinking…Lauralee? Is that you? I don’t think I’ve seen you around these parts for a spell. Should I go get Mullinator?

Congrats and best wishes, **Drain**.

Graduation is December 8th, so I guess the drunken bash would be on Saturday, December 9th. Maybe I should have a DopeFest…

As for the wedding, that’s after I graduate from LAW school. Tentative date for that (the wedding, not the graduation) is sometime in September, 2004.

{uncouth whistling, stomping, yelling, cheering}

Way to go, Libby! You’ve worked damned hard, and best of all, you didn’t stint on the content and PURPOSE of your education. Hey, don’t think it doesn’t show in your posts.  
It’s fine, damned fine, to celebrate someone who honored the real principles of learning.

Gotta say, it’s truly comforting that someone of your heart, mind and character will pursue law. For all the cheap jokes, it’s an honorable profession. If it’s fallen into temporary dishonor, all the more reason for high minded, high hearted people to pursue it for the RIGHT reasons.

Here’s frosty beer and fries-in-gravy in your honor!
