Emma, newly back from Greece, was to take me sailing today. She doesn’t have a bike yet. That didn’t really stop us. Instead, I made a list of fellowships, of schools, and of their deadlines. Brown and Dartmouth were cut from the list of schools, bringing the American count to five, equalling the number of schools across the Pond under consideration. On Tuesday I meet with Cliff to discuss my future.

Until that time, Tracy and I are rocking out to the Rolling Stones.
