Gradumetated!

April 13th, 2008 by Steven · 5 Comments

Readers! After my last post, I am excited to lift your spirits out of the dour places that Chili’s burg-hemoths may have put you in.  I recently recieved this lovely letter in the mail.

That’s right readers! I have GRADUATED! And just a shade under a decade too, alright! Now some of you may be scratching your noggins thinking that I already had graduated awhile ago. Well it’s true. Sort of. I’ll let you in on a little secret. I cheated. Shhhhhhh. You see, I had finished all my Electrical Engineering classes and all that remained were some GEs before I could officially walk the walk and talk the talk. So Wife and I decided that we would settle for walking the walk in August and then finish my classes later.

Here’s the thing about indepent study classes. If there is no threat of deadlines or duedates or mad teachers, TAs, or lab partners, you tend to not do your classes and instead focus on…. well anything but doing your classes. Thus, I um, delayed doing my classes until I had the epiphany that I had 1.5 classes left and only 2.4 months to do them. So I got the thrill of cramming all the classes and knowledge into that small timeframe and finished with a week to spare! Of course there’s no way I could have accomplished that feat without the help of Wife. She took over all household duties and allowed me to study undisturbed. So really the diploma should read Steven Ashby Cramer (but really his Wife) on the Name space.

So, readers, you ask, “Well now what?” And honestly the answer to that is I don’t know. Wife and I get the sense that something big is on the horizon but we just can’t put our finger on it. BUT, as always readers, I’ll let you know. You’s my homeboys.

    Relate to the independent study stuff. I’ve completed only nine lessons in like nine weeks. And I’m working on it every day…ridiculous!

    Sweetheart, you are insanely sweet to say my name should go on the diploma…but let’s face it…you deserve it ALL to yourself. Remember, I’m the one that said “1/8 and then whatever is left?” Ya, there’s no way I could survive in E.E.

    SO PROUD OF YOU! My sugar daddy!
