gradu.macated.

Harrison graduated this morning.  It was sort of weird watching his High School graduation ceremony a summer before what will be my College graduation ceremony.  In some ways, I felt like it was a mental recap of the certain accomplishments and experiences I am supposed to have gone through in College already.  To practice what I would be thinking a year from now, I inserted 'career' or 'rest of your life' whenever 'College' was said, such as in "Today, you are making the transition to your next step in life, the adventure of _the rest of your life_"  Maybe I'm overthinking things.  But until then, I'm going to pretend like this next year is the longest, most productive, and most fun year ever. 

It was a decent ceremony, but I had to jet right after he accepted his diploma to head up to work in time to complete everything for today.  I worked hard and got a lot done, and I met a few more people in the office today which when combined were great accomplishments for me.

Only 20 more pages for my book.  Its finally started to get really weird, but a little less weird than I expected of Murakami.  I guess I'll find what I'm looking for in the Wind Up Bird Chronicles, which according to Luke, makes Chuck Palahniuk's stories read like 'Sesame Street'.  Excellent.

Only 3 cups of coffee for me today.  That's another accomplishment.
