As previously suggested, a lot has changed at RIT in ten years. Take for example the RITskeller. The RIT student cafe/bar is now an ESPN zone. Seriously. Walk in and it looks pretty much the same. But once you finish paying for your food and turn into the dining area, one finds oneself looking into a small TV production studio with a SportsCenter backing.

The wall that separated the Ritz back of the RIT game room has been knocked out and replaced with what you see above. I had heard that this had happened but didn’t expect the results to be quite so dramatic.

Thank you to everyone for your encouragement. Long overdue e-mails will be going out soon. Oh and Zooks, it’s only an MA. Though I truely wish it was a PhD.

Ok… things went really well. I’m just waiting on a final call to make sure things are set before letting it out of the bag.

Sorry for stretching out the cliff hanger of Thursday’s post. I found out early Friday that all grades are in and I will be graduating! The relief of this is tempered by the latest news on Dre’s dad. In order to prevent the infection in his foot from spreading the decision has been made to amputate his big toe. This is what is known as a metatarsal amputation. While it is drastic, the other option are even more so. So we are hoping for the best. The operation is tentatively scheduled for Monday. That will be followed by healing time and physical therapy.

So this Thanksgiving will be especially eventful for the amount that (hopefully) we will have to give thanks for.

Still waiting to see if my prof’s get the grades in. This is really frustrating.

Also we had to take Dre’s dad to the hospital for problems with his remaining foot. I’m not sure where this is going to go this time.

There is job news, but I’m not sharing until things are a bit more official. There’s still a number of contingencies at play.

oops… had an issue with my hosting company… all resolved now!
