It takes a special kind of masochist to keep coming back to amateur bike racing. You've got to love the small victories.

Congrats!
And if I may make a suggestion: your goal should not be "get points" or "cat up to 3". Your goal should be: Win.
If you take care of that one, the others will come along also.

Also, in a lot of the weeknight crits, the juniors race with the 5's. It's no fun getting dropped by a 14-year old girl.

I've always cared. The difference is now it matters how well I do where as in the 5s I just focused on finishing and not crashing.
