Getting Closer to Locking in the Date


Progress is slow, but steady. My one committee member is back from New Zealand, and the department secretary is back from her short vacation. It looks like the department chair will replace the professor whose son just died (I'm going to the memorial this Saturday.) and we will try to get the thing scheduled for next Friday, December 12th.

It looks like the department chair will replace the professor whose son just died (I'm going to the memorial this Saturday.) and we will try to get the thing scheduled for next Friday, December 12th. Another professor is going to meet me this Friday morning to go over suggestions and questions on my paper which is welcome. That's the first indication I've had yet that anybody has even read the thing. That'll give me work to do over this weekend and next week.

And that's that.

Now that the deadline isn't as close as it was going to be I think I can relax my schedule a bit, maybe even call up some friends here in Fort Collins—I was being totally antisocial in order to make sure I'd be ready by Friday—and we'll see what else. I hope I can spend a little time up at Mom's cabin. Tonight I'll be going to the local Howard Dean Meetup and see what the Fort Collins Dean people are planning. Go Dean!
