Well guys, tonight is my EA degree! I'm very excited as this has been a while in the making. There will be two of us going through it together. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks to everyone for the help.
Congratulations! You're in for an amazing journey. The best advice I can give is to not stress out at all - the brothers are there to support you - and to not read ahead on any of the degrees.

Well, I have to say that my first degree last night was very unexpected (I've purposefully stayed away from anything that describes the ritual) and very cool. All day I've been thinking about what I heard and saw. I was amazed that the brothers putting on the degree were doing everything from memory. It really showed me how dedicated they were to what they do and I was truly impressed.
There were two of us that went through together and we have been getting to know each other better the last few months. We are both excited to start attending the weekly classes and really dig into learning the material.
Just an update....I (and the Brother going through it with me) were found proficient for the FC degree on Thursday night and will be raised on 4/10/14. We are both very much looking forward to it. There is also a MM only event at our lodge on 4/12/14 that we will actually be able to attend. Exciting times so far and I'm sure many more to come.
