The state of thangs…

  1. Got some dissertation writing done.  It’s crap, but some crap is better than no crap.  I keep trying to think of it like a marble sculpture; you have to start chipping away somewhere, and it never starts out looking like the finished product.  And if you spend all your time refining, say, a nose, the sculpture as a whole never gets done.
  2. We’re thinking we’ll have the CVS results sometime (late) this week.  I admit, I’m nervous.  M.’s nervous.  We have an idea what we’ll do with bad results, should they come, but you don’t know until you’re standing there looking at them.  We’d both rather know and make an informed decision, but it’s a decision that nobody ever wants to have to make.
  3. The dryer repair guy is here for the second time.  Last time he looked, couldn’t find anything wrong, got it to heat briefly, and took off.  Upon which it promptly crapped out again.  He’s been in there a lot longer this time, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed that this will do the trick; I’ve got piles of dirty clothes stacking up around the house and it’s getting kind of gross.
  4. Still having morning sickness.  No barfing (there never was any), just nausea.  Wonderful, wonderful nausea.  It’s more-or-less latent during the daytime, but come about 5:30 in the evening and I just. don’t. care. anymore.
  5. In happy news, M.’s sister, N., gave birth to a healthy baby girl on Friday.  We’re an uncle and auntie again! :)
