The Rise and Fall

The title has nothing to do with this post. I just don't like having to always come up with titles, so sometimes I make them nonsensical. Well, my wife, Rachel, doesn't seem to be doing a stellar job at keeping up with the blog, so I decided I would post something. Things around the Borg house have been going really well lately. Rachel is nothing less than thrilled to be done with school, and I am nothing less than annoyed that I still have a semester left. But my buffet of undergrad is nearly done. I call it a buffet because my undergrad has resembled a buffet line. I began with Bethel University in the Twin Cities, than moved down to Winona, after a semester there I dropped out and joined the Air Force, getting credits from the Community College of the AF. When I returned from training I decided to start at UWL. I should have been starting with almost 100 transfered credits (32 from Bethel, and almost 70 from the CCAF) but UWL decided not to accept 66 of my CCAF credits. In addition to that, apparently UWL has no course that was like Bethel's, Bible 101 or Leadership 101. This meant that all my "transfered" credits were completely worthless. So I had to begin again almost from scratch. I have treated college like a buffet, getting some of this and getting some of that. But I'm almost done!
Rachel has been working at TGIF, still. She has been doing, it seems, a few less hours lately. That is nice because with classes not starting until January 28th, we have a lot of time together (something which is terribly important for the success of any marriage). I have been looking for jobs, and had a second interview for a position at Associated Bank. I'm excited about that one!
We are getting ready to go on our yearly Church outing to camp Honey Rock. Honey Rock is in te way north frozen tundra of Wisconsin. It should be a blast. I have been organizing it this year, and I think we have 26 people going.
Well, so much for my "babbling" post. That's it for now. I will harass Rachel until she decides to post something on here.
