I wanted to write something about the defence on Thursday, but unfortunately my week practice teaching has left me with the bug from hell. At one point in its life, this bug was a cold, but now it is a vile mutation that is chewing on my sinus cavities, crawling down my throat, and settling into my chest to die.
Suffice to say, the defence experience was incredibly unpleasant, but I passed and that is the important thing. Also important is the fact that I am going to go back to the Carleton campus once more for my graduation and then never again, short of an impressively large salary and a tenure track position.
Now myself, my man-eating disease, and my cat are going to bed. We expect to be very happy, the three of us.

Many congratulations, dude!
But you know you'll have to pass around the juicy highlights sooner or later.
