2 days to go

I was at Noodles and Co. with Andy when I realized that there were 48 hours left till my prelim. Whoah man.

More and more, I'm happy to be getting it done. I'm excited about hearing what the undeniably brilliant minds on my thesis committee will think of and think up. They are rock stars, and they're going to listen to ME on Monday! I know it's their job to try to horrify me too, and see what happens, so I'll just try to be ready for that.

All this happy talk doesn't mean I'm not horrified. I am, off and on. But I'm ready to show'em what I've got. Although I'll still be studyin' tomorrow, of course :)

In other news, I got a bit of sun (think pinker) from wandering around Art Fair on the Square today. I also got my hair trimmed up again so that it should look "together" for prelim and Florida.

It's very odd to be on one of these precipices where, based on a yes or no answer, life will become much better or possible worse in the span of a couple minutes. I hope it's all good. If it isn't, life will go on and I'll do the whole darn thing again. And if it doesn't work that time, maybe my new life as a florist will begin, neh?

Love to you all, especially those of you repeatedly telling me it's all going to be fine. It helps, even if I always say "Yeah, I hope so."
