College son

I use aol's instant messenger - the only worthwhile thing they do (I do not use their IP stuff - yuch!)
It's a way to keep in touch with Andy, away at college.

This afternoon he IM'd me and told me that he is dating Lu, an art major at K-State. This makes me very happy for Andy, because he is, as I am, a nerd, and this is his first girlfriend (he has always had plenty of friends who were girls, but not a girlfriend). It should be interesting, Andy has not an artistic bone in his body (though he is a great writer). Perhaps he will grow to like art more now that he is involved with someone who is an artist!

This has been a good year for both Andy and August (his best friend - he goes to KU). Both of them have girlfriends for the first time. As a mom, I'm happy. And I'm even more pleased that I get to know about it!
