Dissertations

Our friend Mike had his dissertation signed off on tonight at a party, not by his entire committee as hoped but at least by the Chair. The food was wonderful, the music was live, and the occasion was perfect. (I’ve never been to a “live” signing before, performed to a drumroll followed by “Blue Eyed Girl.”) A bottle of St. Emilion 1993 (which, I’m told, is a “vin des dames”) was opened and finished off.

Lorianne just got her dissertation (“Bill”) through as well; stop by and congratulate her if you haven’t already.

  1. Thanks for the tip o’ the hat… A dissertation-signing party sounds wonderful! At my request, though, Chris agreed to plan a party after I’ve had some time to recover from the whole diss-completion process: I want to be awake enough to enjoy my own party, damnit! ;-)
