I Can't Believe This Happened!

The conclusion to The Case of the Missing Tests:
It was a warm and sunny day in Boston as our flight into this historic city landed without incident. While embarking on the taxi ride to our 'Pru' hotel my husband's cell phone vibrated in his pocket alerting him to an important call. "You passed" was all I could hear through the sound of the loud taxi engine. It was our daughter with the news that Excelsior had just called to say our lost tests were found and graded. Relief spread through my tense muscles. No longer would I have the dreaded thought of retaking ECE English Composition. I am happy to report that I received an A and my husband a B. No one was more relieved than my special guy. This was the test he was most concerned about of all the tests for our degree. He was sure he had failed miserably. With this great news our vacation started on a high note that carried through the rest of the trip.

i wonder if this problem we had is happening to anyone else or if something was was not quite right at our unfamiliar testing center. anyway, glad to get that one over! this must be what it's like to do the delayed dantes dance!hilarious

You both did GREAT! I'm so pleased that everything worked out alright for you. You are obviously a better writer than you give yourself credit for. No more underplaying your hand, okay?
