Bad News, Good News

The Bad: I just found out that a panel I'd proposed for a conference wasn't accepted. Eh. One less thing I need to worry about.

The Good: The Board of Regents has approved my promotion to associate professor and my tenure. It's official. Done. Finis. (Not that this is real news, this part was a mere formality, etc., but it's still nice for the process to be totally complete.)

Yay ! No, official is a big deal. Call your father if he's up to it. You needed something officially good. As for the panel, well, hmmm... you need it a little less now.There will be another coonference.

Nothing is ever "just a formality". Some day the regents may decide to be jerks. So celebrate again!
