[quote=scaredyclassic]i talked to him on the phone for an hour the other day. i always feel like i shouldnt talk to him too much. could be draining energy. it can be draining enough to talk to ones mom generally speaking…like theres nothing left to say, and one doesnt want to have to repeat ones self….. im always 2nd after her, which is ok. usually i cut him off cause i dont want him to feel obligated to chatter. but for some reason the other day he wanted to jabber on and on. it was nice. i got tired and had to go to sleep. he wouldve kept talking. he has so much excitement about every little thing going on…his little life is amazing, so amazing.[/quote]
Glad your kid has found a good housing situation near SDSU (kind of a tight market around there) and is enjoying his college experience and independence. That’s (partly) what college is for. I didn’t get that experience (except as a commuter, after-work PT student) but I’m glad my kids did/are. My social-animal kids just LOVED college (as they did HS)!
