Giving my husband heart failure

My son loves to tease his father. While we were sitting at the BMV yesterday, waiting for our new driver's license to be ready, my cell phone rang. I got up and went to a discreet place (as discreet as you can find at the BMV) and answered my son's call to me.

He said he had been researching architecture schools and he found the one he wanted to attend (I knew something was up as he is a High School junior and we're talking grad school here). He had looked into Purdue, Ball State, Northwestern, and a few others in the area but he found one in the top five that wasn't too far away...Notre Dame. He could study architecture and be part of a fencing team!

Those who know my husband know Notre Dame is his least favorite college, probably from all the times it beat his beloved college in football. So, I had to give the phone to his father and watch the reaction...

Fortunately, this would be five or six years away.
