the graduation mayhem has finally ended and i’m exhausted. after a lovely sunday morning farewell at kwh, i realized how much i was tripping a couple days ago when i said i was gonna go to law school. some virtual hand should have just reached out of the computer and smacked me for that. i guess it is nice to have a solid back-up, though. the graduation and commencement ceremonies were typical fanfare, but fun. john legend (!), our graduation speaker and fellow alum, told us we had soul power and reminded us to speak against injustice. i haven’t felt such a sense of camaraderie or accomplishment in a very long time. it still seems a bit unreal. anyway, when i got home this afternoon, i found two important e-mails waiting for me, evidence of the universe’s blessings unfolding. i should have been more patient. i should have realized that in order for these two days to have been as wonderful as they were i needed something equally as awful to compare them to. i had been taking my good days for granted before. but now i’m glad to have them back. everything is looking up and i am looking forward.
hurrah for the red and the blue =)

Dang….John Legend. Really?! My girl and I are really into him. Wish I had someone famous to inspire me at my graduation. I can’t really recall any of the speeches, though, so they they must have been pretty uneventful.
Parabens. ;- )
