Pea-Jay,
That does sound like a bummer week, but you need to focus on individual victories, you got into NYU, that's huge.
They generally have good funding, given the economic climate that may change but take one year at a time, after the first year I believe it's easier to get TA's and RA's. So even if your paying in full the first year chances are you'll have ore available to you the following year.
Also work on your relationship, take your wife out and talk to her, so many relationships fizzle away due to miscommunication and lack of dialogue. You don't need to have all of the answers but you do need to show you care.
Good luck and cheer up.

Its a hard knock life for us

I wish I could shut down all email and mail for a while and only have acceptances/rejections be delivered.
If and when I ever work on a graduate admissions board it will be my goal to get responses back to applicants as early as possible (i.e. January not April)
Good luck.

So true, we have become entirely dependent on technology.
What's sad is that the admissions dept. probably look at as a nuisance, a big stack of papers and numbers to look at, while we stress about 5 minutes of no phone access.

I saw a few invites posted to programs I haven't heard from yet. I'm assuming that I didn't make the first cut and maybe I'll be waitlisted.
Regardless its driving me insane.

Though, I can't offer much advice, I appreciate your clear description of the issue at hand. I am in the same boat. I have a nice offer from a school in FL that has a great funding package but isn't the focus I really want and an offer in NYC that is really expensive. At what point is it not worth it?
