-deep breath-

The other day, the hubs got a nasty email from Norwich saying that he had been dropped from the one class he's taking, because he needs this one stupid course to finish his degree. Not because he hadn't kept track of his requirements, no. But because his advisor and the registrar's office mis-advised him. Anyway, they sent this email to tell him that they were dropping him from the course because he hadn't submitted some piece of information. When he went up on Thursday to talk to them, they pulled the same, "You didn't turn in your... Oh wait. You did. Well, carry on then" crap they've pulled on him for years. Come to think of it, they pulled the same crap on my ex, too. -grumble- At least the problem is solved, and he's still enrolled.

On top of that, the same night he got that email, I got one from my mother-in-law, saying that the hubs' father was going in for an angiogram to find out whether he needs angioplasty, stents or yet another bypass surgery (he's had several quadruple bypasses at this point already). So the family is understandably concerned; myself included. He went in at 2:00pm (Central) and we're waiting to hear back as to how it went.

On the upside, we did get our tax return and were therefore able to purchase train tickets to Illinois in April, so that the hubs can spend his birthday with his family and old friends. And his mom wants to throw us a late-wedding/early-first-anniversary party while we're there. Turns out his sister is also planning a joint birthday party for him and her husband, since their birthdays are all of three days apart.

Also, my bike is fixed, so I can go back to riding to work! I can't even begin to describe how nice it was to get back on it and ride, even just from the bike shop downtown! I MISSED YOU, MY CRUMMY LITTLE DEPARTMENT STORE BIKE!

Here's hoping for good things to come, and bad things to STAY AWAY this year!
