I called Lil approximately 10 seconds after pushing the button to post that last entry.
“I wrote a blog post about you,” I said smugly.
“Oh, GREAT,” was her reply.
And I don’t want you to be confused into thinking she said it enthusiastically, because she did not. It was not an excited “Oh great!” It was more along the lines of when you’re running late and on the way out to the car you step in a pile of dog poo and you say, “Ohhh GREAT.”
Anyhoo.
Today I received an email from my college, gently prompting me to apply for graduation (I know, Mom! I’m totally going to do it… soon… ish…). The general tone of the email wasn’t desperate, per se, but it was pretty hard not to get the hint. It kind of read like so:
Dear Kalin,
It’s not that we WANT you to leave. We’ve really enjoyed having you hereand collecting your tuition. But uh, it’s getting to be that time… It’s just, you’ve been here for… well, you’ve been here for a while… So, you know. Butterfly from the cocoon… baby bird leaving the nest… Get it?
Oh, GREAT.

Kalin is twenty-two years old.
Contrary to popular belief, she's not bilingual (though after 4.5 years of Spanish you'd think she'd know more than she does).
She loves Herefords and Tennessee Walkers. . . [READ MORE] -
