I PASSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I passed my orals which brings me one step closer to being a "Dr" phd genius! Not only did I pass but frankly, I did pretty darn good. yay for me! I have a little fantasy of graduating with my phd and getting my diploma, puffy hat on head, and who do I see but my beautiful wife and proud son meeting me after I walk across the stage (or however it works). That's some good motivation.

Now I have my huge latin exam next week; hopefully I'll pass that as well, and then a huge burden will be lifted off my shoulders and I can relax and go into nesting mode to prepare for Avery's arrival.

Tomorrow is the first day in I don't know how long where I have NOTHING planned. No teaching, no appointments, no meetings . . . I want to sleep in late, watch "A Baby Story" on TLC, eat ice cream, and probably clean up and study latin at least a little. I can't wait.
