this is a test

a what?

a test?

a what?

a test?

oh, a test.

case, my red-haired hunka hunka boyfriend, has a huge test today.

he builds elevators. that's what case does. and elevator building requires elevator schooling ... 4 years of it. it's an apprenticeship, basically. he just finished year 3 and today at 4 pm HST (hawaiian standard time) he is taking his 3rd year apprentice test. 

big deal here, folks.

with elevator schooling you pass or fail. if you pass, you move on to the next year and get a pay scale increase. if you fail, you retake the entire year. oh, and passing or failing is based on two things:
attendance
the grade on this test.

we've got the attendance part covered, and have been pulling crazy late nights studying ... so hopefully all the effort will pay off.

but hey, if you're not too busy around 4 pm HST (that's 7 pm on west coast, 8 pm in utah area, 9 pm in the good ol' lone star state ...) feel free to say a little prayer for case. 

we'll get the results in july or august, so we'll let you know then how fantastically your praying paid off ...

Wow, sounds intense. Brad is going to take a big test in two weeks for his masters, if he fails, well, there goes our whole first year in VA. Ya didn't mention an east coast time... I can figure it out. Six hours difference, right? Day Light Savings still has my times off.
