Oog. I really feel big now. But yet, I’d still like a couple more weeks of being a pre-parent. I passed my oral preliminary exam a week ago (yay!) and spent this past week finishing up my classes — a lab report, a problem set, a final project write-up, and a take-home final. On Tuesday I have an in-class final and then I’m done for the semester. Just need to take care of some baby stuff now and relax a bit. That’s why I want another couple weeks.<\/p>\n

(Did I mention, my computer died again — the week before my oral prelim. This time it died good and hard; the tech folks couldn’t resurrect it… likely something to do with the motherboard’s hard drive controller. Anyway, I’ve got a new computer now, but I’m on a new operating system (Windows 7) and have to reinstall everything, which I’m doing little by little. Plus, I’m finding out things like there is no Windows 7 driver for my home printer. Sigh…)<\/p>\n

Ben’s done teaching his classes and just has to finish grading. But he won’t get to relax, really, as he’s still working on his dissertation. He did get his first paper (which is also a thesis chapter) accepted for publication, which is very exciting. And while it’s sad we won’t be seeing family for the holidays this year, we’re glad we’re not trying to negotiate airports during the big East Coast snowstorm.<\/p>\n

Okay, and now the requisite picture:<\/p>\n
