Another exciting thing happened a couple days ago: I completely finished a crossword puzzle. It wasn’t all me, Justin and dad helped me some.

This morning in the car I heard the ad on the radio where this lady comes on and says, “Hi, I’m Trish so-and-so, VP of Romance at Match.com. Imagine that, a VP of Romance. Come on.

I’m all excited now because I just saw this paper that my uncle (who is a carpenter) brought me showing the work of a real, live engineer. Couldn’t hardly believe it, he performed all his calculations right there in ink (or lead). I always love evidence that real engineers really do crunch hard numbers.
