Dad and I got our hair cut. This is a rather trivial detail, but it's his first haircut since his heart attack, so I consider it a welcome sign of normalcy. Also, he's now planning to return to work on December 18th. I guess he'll work for two days, then the whole place shuts down for Xmas. He picked that date because he's got an appointment with his GP on the 17th, and he'll need a note from the doctor to get back to work. That's apparently an insurance company requirement, as they want to make sure (a) he hasn't just been vacationing in the Caribbean, and (b) he's not going to keel over at his desk.

I got in touch with one of my favorite professors at UB (Professor Tutzauer), and am flattered that he remembered me. He's been bumped up to head of the Comm Department now. Anyway, he forwarded my emails to the senior departmental advisor, who sent me an Application for Reentry that I must fill out. The form "recommends" a meeting with the advisors, so I'm going to go up to Buffalo on Friday for a sit-down, assuming that they aren't all booked-up that day. The reentry form suggested that it be submitted by December 1st, but at least it wasn't a hard deadline. And if it's too late, then I just have to see if Penney's will hire me until the fall semester. (Or Schweizer Aircraft, for that matter.)
