Yesterday was a good day, but Saturday was a very good day -- a day filled with pomp and circumstance.
On Saturday, K graduated with a Master of Arts degree in the Humanities from the University of Chicago. We were fortunate to be there to witness every bit of the speeches, pagentry, and raindrops. It was a glorious day and, even though I felt like cr*p when I woke up at 4:00 a.m., I wouldn't have missed one minute of the celebration.
Actually the day was not filled with the music of Pomp and Circumstance. UChicago graduates are led into the convocation by bagpipers piping traditional Gaelic tunes. I guess if you don't like bagpipes, you wouldn't think this was especially cool, but I like bagpipe music so I thought it was awesomely unique. : )
