mmm...kaluha cigars

so...i totally love sara and tim. those two crazy kids are freakin' awesome and i don't know what i'd do without them.

in other news, this week went really fast. i found out on wednesday that not only did i pass my prelim, but i passed it with distinction. that doesn't officially mean much...but unofficially means that i did a really good job and my committee was really really happy. if anyone wants to read the actually answers, i'd be happy to put you to sleep with them. the typos are impressive though.

it's amazing that the semester will soon be over. i have to shit a research paper, wrap up my classes at blinn...oh, and move 800 miles away. though the job situation is not 150% guaranteed..it's looking good. good enough that i need to just say "yes, i'm going." it's actually really exciting to be heading off to a new place. that is not to say that i won't miss my friends here dearly. i certainly will and i think i haven't made moving real in my head yet because doing that means facing tough "auf wiedersehen"s. but there's something to be said about getting to teach, getting to try on a new city, and just getting to do some new stuff. i'm relatively young, so this is a great time to try new things like this, right?

anyway, i had two cigars and two beers and i'm sufficiently buzzy (not drunk mind you...just buzzy). i should shower and go to bed. actually, i should pack first since i'm going to ABQ to find an apartment.

have good happies kids.
