General: May 2003 Archives

Leslie and I are off to Utah (and for me, on to Vegas from there) for the NAFSA Conference, at which Leslie will be a presenter. I, of course, am heading out for some job searching so wish me luck. So, no updates for awhile - not that I've been really up on them over the past couple weeks anyway.

Got a visit from Jeff Hallock - in town for his brother's graduation. Leslie and I went out for dinner with him and caught up on all kinds of things. Then he showed up the entertainment majesty that is Homestar Runner. Of particular mention are the Strong Bad email section and the Trogdor game (which makes more sense when you check out one of the emails).

I also got an email from Justin Mooney (hi!) that linked me to a story that I had just finished reading on Wired. Check it out here and hopefully get a chuckle.

And in case any of you missed the notice, Leslie got her Certificate in International Studies in a ceremony Friday evening. Go ahead and flood her with congratulatory emails.

Well, after weeks of interviews and campus visits and anxiously awaiting job offers (all of which came in an overwhelming rush), Leslie has accepted a position at UNLV. Basically, we move in just over a month.

Of course, this means I have to bust my hump and line up a job for myself too. So, all those updates you were expecting to the site (HA!) are likely not gonna happen. Stay tuned for sanity checks as we pack ourselves up for a haul across the plains and desert.
