we did it

I did this...



Well not exactly, because I chose not to walk due to the THOUSANDS of students graduating at my school and the shear boredom and misery that would be that ceremony. So, I went to brunch instead. I mean, there is nothing stressful about brunch, except maybe deciding between pancakes and eggs (this deserves a whole post).
But, horrah, I'm graduated. (Only to go back to the same school as a graduate student in the fall, which kinda makes this whole graduated thing seem like bunk, but whatever).

Oh, and the picture is from Sissy J's graduation, who did walk and I did sit in the audience listening to bad speakers and waiting for her name. We are SO proud of her!

I also did this...



For the first time ever! Of course it was done with Sissy J right next to me. It went 70 miles per hour at points and even dropped 90 degrees!! I know, crazy right? I figure if you are going to do it why not start at the best?

So, of course I could make a metaphor, comparing these two accomplishments (the ups and downs etc.) but just imagine it and I'll spare you all that painful sappiness...
