Woot!
Guess what just arrived in my in-box?
This:
Dear Pipes, your optimism, pure or otherwise, is being
rewarded! You received an A on your Old English and, on
your behalf (I hope this was OK), I went to the decanal
committee at SGS to have your INC’s changed to WDR
(withdrawn from course). They approved it at their meeting
last Tuesday, something they rarely do, so hopefully, by
the time your November convocation rolls by, your
transcript will reflect your true promise, not the
hurdles encountered on the way. The grades for the
summer course will be through in mid September.
Congratulations on getting the MA! All the best, Gill
I’m so loving everybody, everywhere right at this moment.
Joy!
Congratulations!!! And hurrah for whoever Gill is 🙂
WHooHOO!!
You’re over-educated now!
We’re going to tear it up this weekend to celebrate – just you watch!
!exclamation!!
RAAAWK
Wow, that is f’ing phenomenal. The part about “true promise” is a really nice thing to say.
Congratulations! I, uhh, I’ll see you in November to celebrate, unless you want to come down here before then!

You are SO more edumacated then I is.
Congrats, dahling! Very proud. PhD next? 😛
File under: kick ass.
That’s some much-needed and well-deserved good news, Miss Pipes. Go you!
So, uh… do I have to call you Master now?
wheeeeeeeee!!!
that is so exciting, congratulations!! so, when can we hang out??
Congrats, hon – that’s great news. I’m not surprised, but I’m thrilled for you. If you like, I will sneak into your convocation and yell something rude but encouraging – apparently that’s my stock in trade now. 😉 C
My heart is just abusting with pride, and I know your Dad’s would be too. Congratulations to my dear girl – I’ll be there with the camera in November…
I obviously have to be referred to as Master Pipes now. You surely didn’t think I spent all that time and money doing a second degree, just for another silly piece of paper in an expensive frame now, did you?
I actually had a dream about coming to visit you on Friday. And you know how I get once I have something on the brain; I’ll make it happen.
Just don’t know WHEN yet, exactly…
(need to make myself a NYC icon!!)
I love the yelling.
Bring on the yelling.
Streaking would also be welcome, if you and/or your bro are into it. 🙂
Who loves a spectacle? Moira loves a spectacle. Yes, she does.
I’m in San Francisco right now & well separated from all my email addresses, so this seemed like the best way to get in touch. I’d rather say congrats in person than ramble electronically, so you should come downtown this Saturday & attend a small party that’s part house-warming for my girlfriend & part welcome home for me. Mostly, though, it’s just an excuse to hang around & catch up. Everyone’s favourite mechanic will be there, for e.g., & hopefully so will Bruno. Email me for details, if you’d like, and we should have dinner soon either way.

Dang. I’ll try to come to your party, but it will be quite late, since the film festival starts this Friday and I have two movies to see on Saturday night.
I was going to ask if you wanted to come to one with me, but it sounds like you’re hella busy. Anyhow, one of them is at 6pm, one is at 9pm. Check earlier posts for more info on what they are.
I’m also going to sit my ass down in the rush line for Dave Chappelle’s Block Party screening at the Elgin on Monday night at 9pm, so if you want to come by Yonge and Dundas and say hello to me, I’ll be the woman sitting in the folding chair with a copy of Moby Dick and a giant thermos of iced tea. Drop on by any time from 5-9.
