You can call me MLIS-ter Bookmonkey!

So here we are, I just got home from my last class of my last course between me and my Master's of Library and Information Studies degree!

A little more than two and a half years after I began I can now say I'm finished with Postsecondary school (my wife says I have to say "for now"), which is very bizarre for me as I started on this road back in 2004 when my seventeen-year-old daughter was my seven-year-old daughter.  It took me seven years to get my Bachelor's degree and almost another three to get this one, but for the first time since my late twenties I no longer have to figure out how to balance school, home and work.

I've got to say, it's actually freaking me out a little...

Things I've noticed: I'm Free This August!

 So I just finished a pretty intense graduate level Education course last month (EDES 545: Information Technology and Learning), and now I have a whole month before I'm back at school in September.

 

So what will I be doing to fill up the month?  Spending a bunch of time with my wife; who now sometimes complains of the lonely life of an MLIS-candidate's wife.  Doing some yardwork, playing Infamous 2, and reading (I've got nine books lined up forAugust).

Past that I'm hoping to get so exercise in, as the scholar's life often ignores things like standing and walking around, so I'm going to try and take advantage of the weather and get out on my bicycle a bunch this month as well.
