A Heck of a Weekend

Whew! Drove 90 miles to Weston, Massachusetts, for the Bachalaureate ceremony for my daughter's graduation from Regis College, stuffed my face at the Texas Roadhouse, which is in fact IN Boston, and drove home again, only to turn around and do it all again on Sunday, with Grandparents and relatives in tow. Sat in a tent in the rain on the lawn at a surprisingly raucous graduation ceremony. The graduates, and the dons were all classy as heck, but some of the audience was getting a tad out of control. Blowing air horns when your kid's name is announced really gets annoying after a while. Regis is a small women's college just outside of Boston, although sadly, next year they are going co-ed.

I guess I just expected a little more...decorum from the parents and siblings. I didn't even get to see her get her diploma, because the idiots in front of us, kept jumping up and down and shrieking, so I'm feeling a bit disgruntled. There was an excellent speaker however for a change, her speach was brief, witty and to the point, and the refreshments were excellent.

I was away from the computer for two whole days! Comic book withdrawal symptoms! So, to restore my equanimity, I will contemplate the joy of Hal Jordan ripping his shirt off.



I can only assume that Hal is jealous of Power Girl, and wants a boob window all his own. Not that I'm complaining, mind you.
