Appertaining thereto? I like your writing style much better. Congratulations!
Ah yes - don't think that the irony of an indiscriminately-worded diploma awarded for a degree in English Language and Literature is lost on this li'l ol' editor!
Thanks, Linda!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!
*standing ovation*
:D
Congrats, friend! Now it's time for you to take a year off and live in your parents' basement. Or something like that. ;)
Congratulations! We're so proud.
