<p>Just received my 1st e-mail from my son at USMMA, I am so excited!</p>
<p>Actually, he had to use his roomate's laptop as my son's is at "supports"
Not sure what that means...</p>
<p>prayerful mom:</p>
<p>Congratulations on getting your first email from you son.</p>
<p>Have you sent the money yet ??</p>
<p>Nuts. I just had my kid on AIM for all of two seconds. He had to go. Helping some company 'mates set up their computers he said. He promised to be back on at 9. Supports doesn't sound good. Must be a glichie new laptop. He may need to find Jamz! HA! I'm sure he'll have it back sometime tomorrow or another new one. I was right in the middle of asking him what his class line up was. Oooohhh that instant gratification is too cool!! Can't wait till 9. Did he say he emailed from the library? Thats where Jamz is at right now. Guess everyone has converged there this evening.</p>
<p>Hey Aspen! I checked my kid's atm card today & he spent 24. bucks on something. Prolly school supplies! If it were me, I'd be buying up the candy bars! Or hows about on cab fare outta that place! ;) All he's asked for so far is an optical mini mouse for his laptop. Go figure. I'd be saying... Get me some ice cream NOW! I wanna go to bed. Where's my pillow?!</p>
<p>Jamzmom...No, he did not say where he was. I think I just assumed their room; although, now I remember you did write something about the dorms internet connection.
So maybe they're all hanging out in the library.</p>
<p>Yes, Aspen, I already sent the check...maybe, I should ask for a refund!</p>
<p>HA! No way! Leave it for the Jamzmom candy fund!</p>
<p>Ooops. Hit the button too quick. Hey Prayerful Mom. Hopefully, he can get set up on AIM soon. Are you set up on it so you can talk to him there? If he said he'd used his room mates computer, I'd bet they were in their room. Too great if that is so because it means that their side of the building is wired up. Hope that is the case. Guess I'll go give some grief to my dogs with the frisbee for a minute while I wait. One is giving me the whoo whoo sound and tugging on my leg.</p>
<p>Jamzmom
IM! IM!
I take back my retraction . . . next thing you know, you will be talking about the video link.</p>
<p>Well, I'm certainly jealous. The WP new cadets actually have their e-mail addresses posted on the usma web site, but no computers until sometime the week of 8/8. </p>
<p>If I've been spending too much time waiting for news from jamzmom, bill, shogun, aspen, katelewis, etc. I think I'll be in real trouble then. I think I'll have to retire and spend all of my time on the Internet - instead of just most of my time.</p>
