So, what did you do today?

I got tired of dealing with the hassle/expense of registering and inspecting the trailer every year, so I sent a copy of the title off to a company in Maine. Got a 5-year registration and plate (or was it 10? can't remember).

Haven't been harrassed by LEOs, no annual inspections/registrations...

I didnt even know trailers were supposed to get inspected until James got busted. What a waste of time and money.

HA! My MI trailer plates are permanent, one and done. FYI if you guys have friends or relatives there.

You mean ME? Who the hell lives in ME? I thought it was nothing but lobster traps and fishermen up there...

Yes, but have you been pulled over with the trailer and had to explain why you have a Maine trailer when everything else is in Texas?

Well yesterday I took the final exam for my last class needed for my AAS degree.
I had a course average of 102.33 going into the final. If I didn't take the final, I would have made an 81 in the class. I would have had to make a -57 on the test to fail the class. Still studied for 2 days and feel I made an A on the final. Grades due by Friday, should be an A.
So glad to be done with this. I started taking classes there in 1998 w/ getting my A&P in mind. Got my A and most of my P. Switched paths in 2009 after taking 9 years off (left the service and got into telecomm - never looked back at the aviation industry). I was laid-off in 2009 and had some free time to go back and switched from Aviation Maint Technology to Aviation Maint & Electronics Technology. It fit my current post military work history better. Pecked away 1 and 2 classes per semester over the last few years. Sometimes taking nothing or dropping for new job reasons. Dropped once because the class was over my head. That alone set me back a year (drop = wasted semester, remedial class to get up to speed = semester that didn't count towards degree or GPA, then retake original class).
So, I finished a AAS that took me 16 years to complete. Not proud of that at all. This will not get me anywhere job wise as I have 10 times the work experience than what an AAS is worth.

Hope to be able to put more time into CMC going forward. Still have 2 kids playing softball all year plus basketball as well. Still have that frickin bathroom shower to finish too.

No real point to my post, just wanted to share.

Awesome that you stuck with it. Great job, regardless of the time it took.
