Reply #69: glad to hear it. My post - was from when I misread the OP [View All]

[salin]

foolish me thought it read "Who has You on Ignore" - and I thought ... "how would I know unless I asked" - so I started asking on the thread (just being silly) and then I re read the OP and blushed - my little posts now seem more than quite absurd. Oops. But hey I had a little time to lounge (not common these days) and we got to cross paths. Makes my faux pas (sp) worth it. Don't think of it as 1.5 years to go - think of it as 1 in 4 down/done! Congrats to you. I hope that you find as much intellectual stimulation and camraderie in your program as I found in mind. It was a great (poor, but great) period of my life - and I can honestly say that some of who I am professionally is not because of that degree (or my work prior to that degree) but because of the interactions and stretching I had to do to keep up with my peers in the program. They were great - and they stretched what would have been growth into much more growth. I hope you are finding a simialr rewarding (though hard and a pain in the butt) experience.
