It's amazing that as you get older your perspective on life changes. When you're in elementary school, you can't wait to be a 6th grader and "rule the school." Then the following year, you get a jolt of reality when you're last on the totem pole and the 8th graders "rule the school." In a few years, you're at the bottom of the food chain again as a freshman in highschool. Ah, but alas the glorious title of senior is yours and you feel superior to all those little ninth graders. Then... whap! Right in the face you're either starting fresh in college, or you're the new employee who doesn't have a clue.

And you look back and before you realize it, your youth is just a flickering light in the vast darkness of your Life. Hmmm... Ben and I were having our morning green tea and realized that oh my word, we've been on our own and graduated from highschool for 8 years! Where does the time go? For all of you who are sitting there saying, "I've been outta highschool longer than you've been alive....." I am sticking my tongue out at you!!!! :-)

If only I could say that as the years have progressed so has my brain. Ha! It seems I get dumber as the years go on. Or, at least I feel dumber! I have much more "worldly" experience, but my book-smarts seem to have begun to dissipate. Ahhhhhhh!!!!! I really need to get my booty (and my brain) into college before I am forced to start my education at ground zero... back in kindergarten! :-)

So, here's to all of you who have gone to college or at least improved your brain capacity!!! WOO-HOO! <---direct quote from my collegiate sister who is younger, but far smarter than I!
