wherein Liz does the college thing
As of one hour ago, I am officially registered for the Fall 2 term at Empire State College's Center for Distance Learning! I am taking one class, on the economic history of the west. My course materials should arrive from the college bookstore next week and the class itself will begin on October 27th.
Vicky very kindly stayed on the phone with me while I negotiated the registration interface, reset my forgotten password, experienced literal cold feet, and wrote a check for the largest amount of money I have ever paid anyone all in one go. I am so glad I have a sister. We don't see each other in person very much these days, but there's a lot of comfort knowing she'll always have my back when I need her. (And I will have hers, too, of course! It goes both ways.)
This year has been wildly up and down for me -- more down than up, I think -- but this right here? This is a good thing. :-)
