Well ... I went through all the mess of registration today. After some careful advisement, I am 2 semesters and 1 summer session away from my BA in English - yes, that will give credence to me being a grammar nazi ... HA! ... I'll be a degreed grammar nazi.

Anyway ... in a few weeks, when the Spring semester begins, I'll be back in school. Hooray! A 33 year old man in a sea of 18-20 year olds. Though it does go to show you that you're never too old to further your education.

So .... wish me luck ... hope for me that my brain is still capable of the classroom environment after having not been in a college classroom for nearly a decade.

Good times!

I'm hoping for a fine young filly to carry my books.

I tried that, but it seems that I'm not allowed to bring pets on campus. You go through all that work stealing some filipino kid, and then you have to leave him outside. Predictably enough some jerk stole him during my first week, they used liquid nitrogen to break the bicycle lock I attached him to the rack with.
Jerks.

Man, you seriously need to cut back on the Law and Order. But of course, that would mean I need to cut back as well.

That was an episode of Law and Order? I don't watch it as much as I like anymore.

No you're right. I do have a music degree. More useful? No ... but who cares about that! A degree in English will give merit to my arrogance. ;)

Why do you think I go for the Arts degrees? Screw science ... a Music degree and/or a Literature degree will get you much more babe action.

After all ... who wants to fuck a Comp Sci major?

Music, film and theater.

Amen to that.

Woooooooo! :D A fellow masochistic artist!

Of course, I already knew that ... I'm still watching Sundance and Cannes with baited breath for a "No Name Film Prod" thing ... or at least something that will let me know you did the crazy cult piece I'm watching. :p

33 is nothing much. I was at a graduation once and saw a man who looked suspiciously like Eut getting his degree. White beard and all. Possibly in his 60s. Unless this person was ODing on the MSG.

I think I'll have two at Sundance this year or next, but not in a creative roll...yet...

It could be worse.
You could always be forty in a sea of us eighteen to twenty year olds.

:D
