Okay. Super-short post here. I’m pretty tired, and I want to get a good night’s sleep tonight. I think it’s funny because most new parents are tired because of their newborns. That is not why I am tired. Senya actually sleeps like a champion. She goes to bed at 9:30 or 10:00 and sleeps until 5 or 6. Then after she eats, she goes back to sleep until 10 or so. If I wanted to be, I could be rested all the time. But, I guess sleep isn’t always at the top of my list of priorities. It’s pretty high on the list tonight, though, so here are just a few updates:
I am working on an application for a competitive grant. I wrote the rough draft for the statement of purpose today. It’s exciting to imagine getting paid to do the project in Kenya that I am proposing.
I also will be applying to ph.d. programs this fall. I am looking into medical anthropology programs, social and cultural anthropology, and perhaps even sociology programs, if they have a social justice emphasis.
I have a pretty big decision to make in the next few days. It seemed like it fell from the sky. I was asked to keep the content of that decision confidential, so I shouldn’t blog about the details. It is something that could potentially be great for us (my little family), but I want to really think through it before committing to an answer.
Collin and I went on a dinner date to our new favorite local restaurant. It was really fun. We laughed a lot and talked, and it was good to just focus only on each other over some delicious food.
That’s it for tonight, folks. Good night.
all good news…hope ou slept well
Linds–this stuff sounds awesome. I know you’ll make the right decisions, too…can’t wait to hear more (when you’re allowed to talk about it)!
These teases don’t sit well with me, Linds. I think you know that.
This all sounds really exciting. Did you end up making a decision?
I just recently did, Joe. It took a long time to make up my mind on this one.
