REGULATOR.

I knew coming out of the exam that I had passed, but I didn’t expect this. I’m paranoid so I’m whiting out my info until I have my certificate in hand. Thank you GOD. Update: I got my paper confirmation on September 22 – a timely six days after my score appeared online.

Unplugged

I’m 18 days out from my exam and I intend on being completely through my REG lecture DVDs in a week. Yaeger‘s REG program has 9 DVDs and I’m on Disc 2. Hmmmm. I’m a prodigious procrastinator and when you couple this with the fact that I’m a news/sports junkie, I tend to goof off
