The boys were back in town for Christmas break and it was great to have them all gather at our house. Loud, but great. One of the LAN parties lasted until the wee hours of the morning and at one point (around 4 am, I think) the voices were so loud and the language so, um, well, questionable, Craig was convinced they must be watching a bad Ben Stiller movie. By 7 am, however, not a creature was stirring.
These boys are serious gamers who do not travel light. And although each of these boys got a 5 on their AP Chemistry AND Physics exams, that didn't stop them from putting cans of Coke in the freezer and subsequently wondering why muffled explosions emanated from the kitchen.
Peter returned, somewhat reluctantly, to SLO yesterday ... the first of the friends to return to college. Having managed to get himself registered for only 8 hours for winter term and planning to crash a number of classes today in hopes of getting off a few waitlists, I expected a somewhat negative response to this evening's 'how's your day?' query. In typical Peter style, however, he declared he is 'wonderful', though he adds 'Well, I think I forgot how to school, but I'm having a lot of fun! =)'
Really, what else could a mother ask for?
