srah blah blah

Meanwhile, back at the ranch

When I tell people that I'm going to grad school at U-M, they have a tendancy to say "Oh, so you can live at home! Oh... so you'll have to live at home..." as if living at home will be miserable or upsetting. I lived at home during my undergrad summers and had no problem, and when people react in this way, I tend to say that my family's not bad to live with.

But now, 1.5 hours away from landing, it occurs to me that they may have been making those "Well... good luck..." faces not because it will be difficult for me to live with my family, but because it will be hard for them to live with me. After seven months as a lone wolf, I will have to be trained back into society. Please be patient with me.
