I think Harvard has a few scholarship spots for punk rockers. Or maybe I'm thinking of varsity rowers?

Same diff, they're all from the same talent pool.

If you can EVER influence a teen to do ANYTHING, do try to suggest she studies a year overseas.
Not a gap year (translation: drinking) some way of continuing to learn outside of America.
Nothing wrong with America. But expand her mind - not everyone is lucky enough to have the Cellar.

Of course I'd suggest England, but even if she doesn't have a second language, Australia, Canada, Holland (two big thumbs up, many Brits actually go to Uni there now) etc etc.

I've been very fortunate in that I earned money young, so travelled when I had no commitments. Still have no commitments but then I no longer have any money :)
Go when you can is my advice. And my teen-mum niece is prrof you never know how long your freedom will last.

You can move locations when you are older (like some Dwellars, although the ones I can think of might wallop me for the description) but it's a wrench. You may even have to import a husband...!

Congrats on raising such a bright girl, though. Proud Papa.

OK w00t 4 m3!

I just arranged a sublet for the next 3 months so I can get out of the house while I make plans for the bigger, final move. I haven't broken the news yet, but I'm in as of Tuesday!

I negotiated the rent down to $400/mo. so I should just be able to swing that and the mortgage.

Her sister is doing a semester in Italy this Fall. I'm sure she'll want to do something similar.

Row of ducks, you has them!

Good news all around!

F3 You are on the path to happiness! Good Luck! :)

Foot, I am a little confused as to the meaning of our post. Something about paying the rent?
But you seems pleased, and so do other Dwellars on your behalf.

So, congrats.

I'm renting a place for 3 months at $400/mo. I also have to continue making mortgage payments for the time being.

And we're pleased because he's making progress getting out of his soul sucking relationship.

Yay! Too nice a soul to get sucked out and all ruined and stuff.

And I'm happy for this place and my friends. Thanks for today. :)

Happy Friday, infi. Hope the weekend brings you some peace!

Congrats! On to better things, on a better path.
