Time has really flown. I got back almost a month ago already and yep, jet lag bites. You need a day for every hour you are off and it really did take me nine days to catch up. I particularly hate waking up in the middle of the night ravenous. Week 2 I was gradually getting back into the swing of things, I went into the office. It is now Week 3 and I am sick. Should have taken some time off. Fortunately getting over it after taking it easy this week. I attack with avengeance next week.
Anyway, I had a great conversation with my advisor-extraordinaire, Karlyn, upon my return and she thinks I am ready to write everything up and (gasp) finish my degree. Sweet!! What does that mean exactly? Well my Committee and I agreed that long gone are the days of the old school thesis which no one reads. Instead, I would write three articles for publication. One down (AWRA IMPACT, March 2013), two to go!
