I made it!

I am finally DONE with school (well, college at least)!!! I officially graduated last Saturday! 
Now I'm just waiting for the official degree to get mailed, and then the licensure paperwork, and I'll be set.
Well, that and finding a job. Which I'm currently in the process of doing. I was procrastinating (partly just because I really was busy, but then just because I didn't want to answer the interview-like questions on the application), but I finally mailed off my general application to the closest school district last week, and I mailed off my first specific letter-and-resume today. Crossing my fingers for a job teaching 6th grade at a school nearby. Ideally, I'd love to work at the one across the street! It would be convenient, I could walk to work (save on gas $$!), and feel better about my environmental impact. We'll see though.
Also waiting to hear back about teaching summer school. I don't like all this waiting! I'm also scared to death about the interviews - I need to really prepare ahead of time, but I'm putting that off... I'm not a good interviewee.
Good news is that I get to head back to Cali for 2 weeks! My parents are flying me back while DH is underway. My cousin should be having her 1st baby while I'm there, and my mom and aunts are throwing my grandparents a (get this) 60TH ANNIVERSARY party! Should be fun.
Well, I wanted to start getting back in the habit of this. I was keeping up with my student teaching blog for a while, but then it wasn't mandatory and I started slacking. I really like putting things down in (writing? typing?) every so often, though. DH gets sick of hearing it all! Anyone else feel the same?
