Daughter is graduation highschool next weekend! So excited for her but sad at the same time. I think I am more anxious and excited than she is.

Since we’re sharing milestones, my boy started crawling a couple days ago. Not sure if I should celebrate or have a panic attack.

Yes she is going to a local state school starting in the summer. She is going into the nursing program. Depending on how well she does will determine what degree she ends up with. She is a good but not great student so the regular RN program will probably be challenging for her.
Congrats on your son crawling! Enjoy the moments as they tend to go quickly.
Congrats on all the milestones! My boy started school a few weeks ago (he turned four on April 11), which is also quite exciting for all of us...
I really enjoyed popping into this thread and seeing some proud personal milestones shared by the members here, congratulations all on your marriages and children. This is a great community.
I really don't have a milestone as important as the ones mentioned here, but I did see Richard Dawkins speak last night in Melbourne - a personal hero of mine He was erudite and passionate - I loved it. I regret not buying tickets for the 'meet and greet' (and book signing!) afterward, the people I went with didn't won't to pony the extra deniro for that...
Congrats Michael and Ben Staad!!
Antoni that sounds like a GREAT time, do a lot of writers come to Melbourne!!
Thanks, Matt. We do get a few come through - The Melbourne Writer's Festival every year gets some big international and local names - last year I met Joyce Carol Oates, the year before was Justin Cronin. An Aussie organisation called "Think Inc" bring a lot of great minds to speak (I saw Sam Harris and Majid Nawaaz last year, Dawkins this year). If only the King would head this way again...
Just learned that “WC” stands for Water Closet. Kept seeing it on the door of restrooms. At first I was confused. There’s a door. Looks like it could be the restroom, but there’s no restroom sign. Anyway, I got it now.
I remember WC in Anne Frank's diary and have seen it in a few older films. I've never seen it in use anywhere in the US but I am in the deep South. My parents were older when they had me. They remember using Outhouses when they were kids. I mainly hear folks refer to it as Bathroom or Men's/Women's room.
By the way, is this officially "potty talk"?
Today is my 35th wedding anniversary. I’m a much better person because of her. No doubt about it.

Congratulations!
Congratulations, Mike!
That’s awesome, Antoni!
