BRAD IS MARRIED!
Seems to be a general belief that Brad has been married for a bit. And truly it has been a very little bit. Like 17 or 18 hours. He and the lucky lady were hitched last night in front of friends and family in our beloved city. Revelry, fun, and shenanigans were had. Ruth read from Lighthousekeeping by Jeanette Winterson and quotations from Winston Churchhill. And I read from Taylor Swift and The Office. We are different people and Brad and Kelsey contain multitudes.
The staff was there to officially welcome our newest Honors family member. So now's your chance to see it too (over there -->). And in the immortal words of Ruth (and apparently many Honors students: "It's about time."
Send your best wishes to our favorite curmudgeon and his newly wedded love.
