Cayne finished high school, and got most of the way through his degree in computer science before he wrecked his wrists during a co-op, and had to take quite a bit of time off to recuperate. Unfortunately, he didn't go back after that, and so, he's degree-less. A comp sci degree would be a waste of time for him at this point, so we've found a couple of alternative possibilities for him, that hopefully won't drive him to batty with humanities classes and be vaguely practical since work will pay for his education. He's fine without a degree, but it's the sort of thing where there are times when not having the piece of paper will hinder his career progress, and so, he basically needs to get his ticket punched. I, on the other hand, have two degrees and no idea what I want to do with my life, since what I really want to be doing isn't feasible right now.
We've taken a couple of French classes together (he's fluent, having gone to French Immersion schools growing up, I'm not, but I get by,) to refresh things. We speak Frenglish at home some of the time-it's amusing.
We do really work hard to take time to do things together-I don't think I'd want to have it any other way.
