I'm Back...again

I had another week's worth of edits to do on my dissertation, but it is finally in fighting shape. I have sent it to the committee. I will defend "An Evil Empire": The Rhetorical Rearmament of Ronald Reagan on Friday, April 23 at 9 am in the conference room on the 4th Floor of Bentley Annex in Athens, OH. It's a public event, so I expect to see many friendly faces in the crowd. (Joke)
The point of saying that is that I have been lax on Anders-related stuff. When I emerged from the salt mines on Monday afternoon, Anders had to really study my face to make sure it was me. I had my haircut in the meantime as well, which probably also accounts for the confusion. I no longer look like an extra in a Bicentennial period piece.
I will be better now, if the computers cooperate. Our laptop pretends the pictures don't exist, and our ancient desktop is starting to fade away. And since I have the tech acumen of a man in his 50s...well...there will be more snags.
I will write more later, but I need to file some paperwork on campus, plus Anders is waking up.
