We know we were hiatus-ed for a long time there last week. An entire 11 days with no humorous anecdotes. The truth is, we had the blues. The end-of-graduate-school-is-near-but-will-it-ever-really-happen blues. The chemistry was failing. Again. Our schedule had us up early and out late. We were eating separate meals at different times in other places. One bad day led to another bad day led to a general malaise. And to add insult to injury, I discovered that the cat on my bike route who always sits in the window of a particular house, greeting me as I fly by each morning, constant always, this cat is a wood cut-out.
But then came Labor Day. We’ve recharged. Had some rest. Eaten some great meals together. Spent time with friends. Made plans to go camping this weekend. Chemistry has started to return interesting results. Finally. This summer’s work schedule is history. We’ve passed our last hot hot hot day. We’re again ready to push to the really-the-end-of-graduate-school days.
We are heeding the words of Dory, the plucky fish from Finding Nemo: “Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep . . .”
