Better and better!

Sometimes things happen that remind me to just listen to my mother. If I just remembered to do this most of the time, life would be ever so much easier.

The latest spectacular example of this would be these stupid letters of recommendation. There I was, freaking out about my chances of getting in to any school at all having been shot to hell, and had I just listed to my mother's assurance that all would be well I could have saved myself 3 days of horrible stress and anxiety. So far, I've heard back from all the schools and they all said it was fine, and I can just send anything missing directly to them and not to worry it will all be ok. Yay! I have a prayer! And both of the schools in the area are ok, so I might even have bi-coastal options!

Anyhow, I have to make a couple of calls and get copies of the letter sent to a few different places, but I'm in good shape.

So between the huge wave of application related relief and a very pleasant evening last night (that chocolate port drizzle sauce never fails), I'm feeling pretty spectacularly good today. I have a ton of work to get caught up on after a very unproductive week, some hardware requests to figure out, and other random clean up and administrative stuff to take care of but it's going to be a lovely day, and a lovely weekend, and life is good.

Oh yeah, and we are starting a boylympics site, I just have to register the domain today and decide how the charts and graphs should be built. Anyone interested in helping to build a score-board system should apply directly to the IBC.
