Homo Studentus Universitatus

Blog, blog, blog sounds like blah, blah, blah…But here goes..I recently read an article that was published in the Chicago Tribune about a special species, homo studentus universitatus, aka the college student on break.

The article says that this creature returns to the parental nest several times a year for an extended stay that lasts anywhere from one to fourteen weeks! We have one of these!! The interesting thing is that our whole family looks forward to the arrival of this very social creature. (Well, almost the whole family…the creature’s brother just sighs and says, “There goes my clean clothes and gas.”) But within a very short period of time we are thinking that we should have changed the locks. We have just experienced the spring migration of the species. After I finish restoring normalcy to our house I will tell you more!
