Everything is falling behind right now. We are in the middle of something big, something exciting, but something that might still fall through. I am trying my best to prepare myself for disappointment, but I cannot help getting all excited, planning and anticipating.
Of course I am not superstitious in the least but I can't shake the feeling that speaking too much about it too soon would jinx the whole thing (knock on wood).
I promise I'll tell after we know for sure, one way or the other.

At work I've been busy, with some things becoming more urgent in our research, and I am desperately trying to put in enough time to manage the work and offset any time I might require for the aforementioned big thing.
I've been having way too much fun reading other people's blogs to get seriously updating here.

[ sunday ]
We spent some time with mpo's son and his family. Anamika is the world's most amazing 3.5 month-old! She focuses on people, really interacts with her parents, giggling and gurgling, making well-defined sounds, and of course loves playing with her fingers and toes.
Before going to Curry Leaf for their North Indian Chaat buffet we spent some time in the morning sun in their garden. I love this time of year where the sun is kind and gentle, not a ferocious bully that sends you scuttling toward the nearest shady area.

[ tuesday ]
No fog on the drive to work, but once I enter the campus there is a low blanket, maybe hip-height, laying on the ground. The cows in the pasture on the other side of the chainlink fence appears to be floating, their legs invisible, for once strangely graceful as they glide along.
Sorry, didn't have time to grab the camera - I was driving.
