Stories from College

<p>I got a panic IM this morning…Mom, call my cell phone ASAP… Of course, in the few moments that followed, the million things that could have gone wrong instantly jumped to mind. What did she need to tell me ASAP!!! I called and IMed at the same time. Seems the cell phone went missing this morning. Of course, I IMed all the motherly “where did you have it last” stuff, and I assured her that it most definitely was in her car (she dropped a friend off at the Metro station early this a.m.). Sure enough, a while after she was out of her next class, I got the familiar ring on my cell phone (everyone important has their own ringtone). For her sake, I was thrilled to hear one of the songs from “Juno” on my cell!</p>

<p>Move-in went fine, (her 2nd year), except that my OCD daughter was more stressed than I anticipated she’d be…we all had some “short-fuse” moments, but it turned out to be a fun family weekend, in the end. Just had to keep D and H from exploding or having their heads spinning in 360-degree circles.</p>
