I just wanted to write a quick post to update on the cool things happening in the Weller home. I got my MAT scores back yesterday (the MAT is a graduate school entrance test that is all relationship questions: A is to B as C is to D--they're so random and cover such a broad spectrum of topics that you really have no way to study for it) and I passed! I needed to get in the top 40% (so a 60 or higher) and I scored an 88. Not too shabby! Now I can officially submit my application for grad school and take classes in the summer.
Also, my beautiful, oh-so-smart, wonderful wife Kristen made the cover to my book, and we are in negotiations with a publishing company to get it printed in the next month. We're going to get a few sample books made here locally to elicit orders at the school, but we're going to do our best to get them circulated within a month or so. It's a collection of my comic strips for the past two years with some thoughts about growing up and being in middle school. I'm a middle school teacher, so it's appropriate, I think.
So, good things going on here!

Yeah, that MAT test...I should really get on that...
Congratulations on both your test and your book. You should now start one for elementary age kids. They love that Wimpy Kid comic. I do too.
congrats and good luck!
Alright! Excited to see your book!
Steve,
Good for you on passing your test. I know when Uncle and Paul and I were in school, passing tests and advancing in life....life was busy, but wonderful. We would love to buy one of your books. :) Take care, Hugs!

That is great! Niel just told me his Sunday School kids were talking about you today. Apperently you're a cool teacher and they love that you show them a different comic everyday. I can't say I'm surprised at all. Keep us posted about the book!
