Update on the DL

So last night I shared a bottle of wine and a fresh salad with the Graduate Administrator in our department.  After glass 2 she opened up and told me some of the secret goings-on.  Most of it will not mean anything to most of you, but she did tell the ranking order of the Acting Professor Candidates.

Candidate 1, Candidate 4, Candidate 2 and Candidate 3.

I believe all of them are also up for other positions so who the heck knows what we will get.

Yesterday I got a call from my buddy Tim inquiring if he left his glasses in my apartment at the festivities around the last show of the quarter. "You sure did." I told him I'd keep them safe, but thought I would have a little fun and do a photo shoot modeling my "new" glasses. Randy is in the background.

In honor of St. Patrick's Day, Tony and Randy came over for a drink and then the three of us went to an undergrad techie's apartment for a party.  I played my first game of Beer Pong (also called Beirut) last night and surprisingly enough, I was not half bad.  We would have won the game if Tony did not knock the entire remaining cup on to the floor.

Um, beer pong?  Where the heck am I?
