Dropping mini off at school on Friday but a close friend’s daughter (she calls me uncle but not even uncle - masa (torinese will get it)) got into Emory law off the wait list. We live a mile from campus. So she’s going to live with us until she gets an apartment. Orientation is on Wednesday.

This is going to be interesting.
