Ditching my advice at least somewhat, I’m going back to work today while still sick. But so much less sick than I have been – turns out that taking off more than a full day in a row really does a body good. If only I’d thought that through on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Anyway, to update the code:<\/p>\n
4\/4 (+C, ?H, ??+O, +P, +Y)<\/p>\n
HOWever, as the title suggests, Columbia easily removed itself from contention by offering no financial support. When up against the twin facts of being the most expensive program applied to and Emily’s least favorite match, this is finally an easy choice to make. We are not going to New York!<\/p>\n
(…and there was much rejoicing.)<\/p>\n
Harvard’s planning on notifying sometime during baseball season and Oxford is utterly unpredictable, so we probably have a bit of a lull in news for now. Princeton and Yale may have to be separated by an actual visit (better decision mechanism than a coin toss), which may keep Emily from joining me on the first leg of the West Coast Farewell Tour, that starting in eight days in Los Angeles. While I will be eternally grateful that I didn’t visit colleges prior to deciding my own undergraduate destination, pretty much no one else agrees with me about this. That was probably a pretty special circumstance, to be fair.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, in the other collegiate news of these times, my bracket is 12\/16, losing only one major pick (Butler in the Elite Eight). I feel confident I will recoup those points vs. the field, however, when LSU (rather than Butler) trounces UNC in Round 2. I probably have a lot more at stake today, with Sweet 16 teams like Wisconsin and Utah State needing to start their upset trains.<\/p>\n
I really should not be this tired at 7:00 AM. But knowing I can sleep after one day of work is pretty nifty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
