sixteen hundred bucks later. . .

I pled my case to the folks in Albany, and was granted admission into Capstone for this summer. The ramifications of this boon follow:

1. Tuition of $1100 was due on the spot. I had it, but jeez. I need to start working full time again just so I have something to occupy my time other than spending money on my career. (The other five hundred was for the privilege of submitting my video and paper for TAC.)

2. Based on my last two online cohort courses, I need to plan to spend at least thirty or forty minutes a day during the week participating in the discussion threads. Shouldn't be a big deal, provided I don't do any major travel. And while it beats driving to class, it is also annoying. Think Myspace, but run by the PTA.

3. Even if I have to redo TAC, in its entirety or in part, it ENDS this summer. I am, as I am sure I have mentioned, smoked. I don't care what I have to do. It's time to stop the bleeding.

4. Holy shit. I had better start doing push-ups.
