Good Luck Tomorrow, Lover!
Tomorrow is a big, big day for
, my darling husband. Tomorrow at noon he has to sit for an exam given by the Behavior Analysts Certification Board to get the upgrade of the BCABA (Board Certified Associate Behavior Analyst) certification that he already has. If he passes tomorrow, which he WILL DO, he will be a BCBA (Board Certified Behavior Analyst—are you dizzy yet?), which is a big deal in his line of work. He has been striving on this path a long, long time—about three years, I think. For more than two years he was taking online courses from two different universities, simultaneously pursuing a Master’s degree and this BCBA credential. Two Augusts ago he took the associate’s level exam and passed. Last February, he finished the Master’s degree. Without it, he wasn’t even allowed to take tomorrow’s test. He has studied a lot this month, and about 8 hours per day for the last week. I’ve done my best to keep the children occupied elsewhere and it worked pretty well. We’re all tired, but not as tired as Ian. His eyes are crossing and I can tell he’s bored to death with studying. By 4:00 p.m. tomorrow, it will all be over and done.
So if you friends have any spare cycles, despite all the packing and loading and driving and traveling and ready-making, please send some good vibes and good wishes to Ian. I’m pulling for him with all my love and faith in his brilliance.
Good luck, sweetheart!

I’m sending some vibes his way right now. I know he’ll pass with flying colors because he’s awesome like that!
Hey, wanna get together sometime this week for our own personal burn? I say we fire up the bbq and donate something to the fireflies… Two Sarongs make a “right” 🙂

It’s 4:36! Wow. All done? Squeeze your charming husband for me and tell him I’m sure he did well. Sending love.

I’m sure he did fabulously– he’s been working so hard towards it. Give him a smooch for me!

Thanks for the good thoughts everybody. I won’t know until October, but all in all I feel alright about it.
