omg there is an actual emeritus office now!

A small, sparsely furnished emeritus office, room 3128, viewed through its glass-paneled door. The nameplate reads "Computer Science & Engineering – Emeritus Office – 3128." Inside, gray carpet tile with flecks of orange runs to a large window with vertical blinds partly drawn, giving a view of an adjacent brick/tile building under a clear blue sky. A young fiddle-leaf fig plant sits in a black pot near the window alongside an empty black planter, and a black filing cabinet with a wood-toned to…
It’s me! In the emeritus office! In a brand new Herman Miller chair!

A close-up selfie of an older man [hmph] sitting in a black mesh-back office chair (Herman Miller style) in the same emeritus office as the previous photo. He's balding [ok ok enough] with white hair [oh ok so I am old already!] on the sides, wears rectangular black-framed glasses, and has a white mustache and soul patch. He's wearing a lavender-and-white striped button-down shirt, open at the collar, with a small beaded neck…
The view from my office window.

A wide daytime view over U-M's North Campus, looking out from a few floors up. On the left stands Baits Tower (the brick clock/bell tower with its distinctive stepped, angular design), rising above the surrounding plaza and lawns. Below and around it, brick-paved walkways and green lawns with young trees lead across the diag toward a low brick building in the middle distance, part of the Duderstadt Center, with a glass-walled corridor section.

Counting Dogs And Broken Films
Athena apparently knows exactly how many treats she’s supposed to get, while my dad’s old home movies proved a little less cooperative. Between updating my genealogy site and repairing a broken 8mm film, it was a surprisingly busy quiet week.

A temporary pool pump, a replacement pump, some major menu changes, and the beginning of a project I’ve wanted to tackle for years: digitizing my old 8mm home movies.
The first reel dates from 1961 and includes my parents, my infant brother, and several other relatives. I’ve had these films since around 2000, so finally seeing what survived all those years—and seeing some family members who are no longer with us—was pretty special.

Athena apparently knows how to count. At least, she knows when I short her one treat.
Meanwhile, I upgraded my genealogy site and managed to break one of Dad’s old 8mm films during digitization. Fortunately, it broke at a splice, and I found a clever way to repair it.
