My friend Rick helped me transfer all my programs and files over.
catnik 9:18pm
woo
earldebuke 9:18pm
Yay, Rick!
robinrahne 9:18pm
Seriously. I should bake him something.
robinrahne 9:18pm
Hmmm....Zara is stalking me.
earldebuke 9:18pm
Ha. Is she now?
robinrahne 9:19pm
I grew up in Scarsdale, and I work just a few blocks away from Vassar.
catnik 9:19pm
well, really
catnik 9:20pm
where would YOU send her to college, if money were no object?
catnik 9:23pm
ohhhh
robinrahne 9:23pm
Seriously.
catnik 9:23pm
we should likely all be glad she hasn't considered Oxford
robinrahne 9:25pm
Well, that would be a challenging shift.
catnik 9:26pm
that would likely mean retirement
catnik 9:26pm
but, stateside...
robinrahne 9:27pm
Yup.
robinrahne 9:28pm
Now, if Zara's expecting Vassar to be all dainty girls in perfect sweater sets...nothin' doin'. Co-ed, and some pretty raucous parties on campus.
catnik 9:28pm
ha
catnik 9:28pm
Zara would HATE sweater sets
earldebuke 9:29pm
Hiram would to, those girls don't wear the right sweaters
robinrahne 9:29pm
Ha!
robinrahne 9:29pm
catnik 9:31pm
Zara wants a small, weird school with old things and weirdos
robinrahne 9:31pm
Yup.
robinrahne 9:32pm
She'll love the Old Observatory building. I fell in love with it.
catnik 9:32pm
and that LIBRARY
robinrahne 9:40pm
She may be disappointed, though, that many of the classrooms are comparatively modern and stark within the exterior beauty of the buildings' facades.
catnik 9:40pm
she would be, yes
catnik 9:40pm
I think miss home school has dreams of winding hallways and dusty chalkboards
robinrahne 9:42pm
Well, she'll get that with some of the buildings...and certainly that LIBRARY...but not everywhere.
earldebuke 9:42pm
Maybe it has areas in the near dreaming that look like that
catnik 9:43pm
yeah
catnik 9:43pm
and it looks like a very traditional campus - greens and groves and paths
earldebuke 9:44pm
"You've stepped through the Chalkboard into my realm? Rule here? Not so much as create here. I've been in the land of Chalk Drawings since I was a childling. You know my name. It's Simon . And the things I draw come true"
earldebuke 9:44pm
😉 Jk
catnik 9:44pm
I don't know if she would like living in NC proper, or one of the very large schools...
catnik 9:46pm
nYc
catnik 9:46pm
hm
catnik 9:46pm
"Queen City of the Hudson"
catnik 9:46pm
"Dutchess County"
catnik 9:46pm
... yeah, it's a noble hold
earldebuke 9:47pm
ha.
robinrahne 9:49pm
Oh, probably a Nunnehi presence, now that I think of it.
catnik 9:49pm
oh?
earldebuke 9:50pm
Interesting
robinrahne 9:51pm
Well, the name of the city is from a tribal name, I'm pretty sure.
catnik 9:54pm
it is
catnik 9:54pm
oooo, Ed Wood is from there!
robinrahne 9:54pm
Poughkeepsie has a LOT of ghost stories associated with it, too.
robinrahne 9:54pm
Hmmm...not sure if Zara would enjoy the Walkway Over the Hudson....
