personal: School's out for winter

This entry goes into the 'Yay-Me!' file ...

Saturday morning I participated in the University of Arizona's commencement! Yay me!

Former governor Raul Castro (not this Raul Castro, nor this one) received an honorary doctorate of laws, and our guest speaker was Raul Grijalva, who delivered a fantastic speech and who I wish was my US representative rather than this joker. But anyway, if wishes were fishes ...

Resplendent in my black robe and red, white and blue hood, I experienced some nostalgia and sense of accomplishment looking upon the poor bachelor's degree candidates and also some envy looking at the people getting their doctorates. There's something about the sound of 'Doctor Devine' that I find appealing. Maybe someday ...

But the upshot is that after the past two years of struggle, sacrifice and stress, it's done.

You may now call me Master Chris.
