Even worse than no one being home-- we're going to be leaving my almost-17-yo son home alone for the first time ever.  I've counted and marked all the booze.


Let the rager begin.

Looking back, I really appreciated the English Lit classes I took in college. Mostly because it made me a more interesting person to have read some good books and I wasn’t trying to rush through anyway.
Yeah I really would have liked to have taken English Lit in college.  Unfortunately I was in a time crunch and the scholarship money was set to run out in exactly 4 years, so I had to take every AP credit I could get.

I console myself with the fact that my high school lit classes were quite excellent and I'd already read pretty much the entire college reading list.  I like to think that's part of the reason I'm the amazing, interesting person that I am today. :)

I think by 17 we'd learned to quit getting into stuff the parents would figure out and moved on to getting it from older friends.  

Allegedly.

Seriusly though, we're good friends with her roommate's parents, our daughters have been like sisters for the past 13 years since kindergarten,
That's very lucky for her... 

My son is going to be in a 3-bed dorm room with two people he didn't know. Thankfully he's talked quite a bit with the one from Redondo Beach (who I think moves in today?) who will be a physics major and so they're probably quite equally nerdy. The other one is a sophomore from Shanghai, and being a returning sophomore who is going to be rooming with two rando freshmen seems like a little bit of a red flag...

So hopefully that works out ok.

I happy to have never opened a book in Madison. Not one.
