Exciting Things that Happened Today

So Cat's all set to graduate and stuff. They had a "graduation fair" where Cat had to wander from table to table (instead of from office to office) getting all the signatures saying that she had turned in all the stuff she needed to graduate. She's going to have a BA in EnglishAndTheatre (they won't give her two degrees, since they were both BAs) and she'll have a minor in Linguistics (she was afraid that might not come through, since apparently there were some problems with substituting Japanese, which there shouldn't be since that's totally allowed for the minor). She also got her cap and gown (black), and her cords for graduating Magna Cum Laude (which she sorta forgot she was going to do).

She should hear about her Englsih Honors Project by Tuesday of next week - she's not sure what she gets for graduating with honors in English. Cat's Bother thought that they gave out special stoles or something to people at his school, but Cat's doesn't know what they do here. Maybe it is just a note in the program or something. Teehee, if the ceremony is moved in doors, Cat's Bother won't get to go (TeeHee) since Cat only could get four rain tickets and Mr. and Mrs. Cat's Parents and Mr. and Mrs. Cat's Grandparents are coming. Cat's Bother better hope that they get nice weather, or else he's driving a long way for a free dinner and that's about it. Well, maybe Cat can find someone that wouldn't use all their rain tickets . . . That'd be really nice for her to do though . . . It might not be possible.

Cat also almost lit an oven mitt on fire because she turned on the wrong burner. That would have been more exciting than it was - she caught it after a few minutes and turned the burner off and moved the mitt. Still, not something that happens all the time.

Meanwhile, Cat still has a lot to get done. Her show is going well - it's all blocked, her princess's back isn't as badly hurt as we thought it was (that could have been a disaster) and she's threatened them with Shakespearean heckling if they don't have their lines down by next week. In the mean time, she has some projects for directing that are almost due and her paper for Senior Sem needs to be roughly done by next week. She also needs to put together a short paper for History of the English language. She thinks she's going to look at recent neologisms (like "anectdotage," teehee). Anyway, she's still crazy busy, but it'll all be okay.
