I'm really doing this. After 4 and a half years of isolation, I'm back in college.

I'm starting slow, I have one class that is online, and one class that meets twice a week for 2 hours. The class that I go on campus for is "Introduction to Computers". It's very simple and easy. I've spent so much time on the computer that I feel like I could be teaching it!

I won't say that I'm totally comfortable being in class. I don't interact with other people in there. I get really upset by a woman that always bumps into me when she passes my seat.

But I'm there.

And, I got a 100 on my first homework assignment in my online course. (The class average was 81.) That was very reassuring, I was afraid that I had lost my ability to think clearly.
