Which first, the good news or the bad news?

The bad news: not only does grandma have Alzheimer's (just now confirmed by a neurologist, without an MRI - it's so obvious), but she has also suffered a series of mini-strokes, which have affected her brain's signal paths to her legs. So that's why she's having so much trouble walking. A combination of arthritis and this. Sad, unfair, sad. sad.

The good news: the mysterious They (being a selection subcommittee) are recommending my Intro to Humanities Computing course for approval to the curriculum committee. I get to teach it come next spring.

I'm having an aversion to the net, so phone me already.
