and i didn't even barf

i knew a little more than a year ago that i had to write a speech for the graduation ceremony at the college i work at. it's not because i hold a position of any importance, but i do hold a position that has write a speech for graduation.

so i thought about it for, oh, about a year.

and started to give it some serious thought about a month ago.

strangely enough, i've not blogged for the same amount of time.

and i didn't type out my speech until last night.

(the night before graduation.)

so tonight, i gave my graduation speech.

and it was, without doubt, one of the coolest fucking things i've ever done in my life.

even cooler was the fact that, although the college i work at lies directly under a major flight pattern in & out of SFO and our graduation exercises are held outdoors, no planes flew by while i did my speech.

okay, the coolest part was that i didn't barf immediately after addressing a group of 3,000 people.

YAY ME.
