So, I’m finding myself asking if it’s April yet….which is kind of funny, since there is so much going on right now and in the near future that will be a lot of fun – Thanksgiving, Black Friday, graduation, my parents visiting, North Face marathon…but, we’ve started to really plan for everest.  And, I’m really excited….really, really, excited.  We’re figuring out how we’re getting all of our stuff and looking at flights.

We got our boots tonight and are going to start breaking them in tomorrow.  I’m sure that will be an adventure….and I’ll have sore feet – these boots are really stiff.  But, I guess we have to start somewhere.  Hopefully they’ll be good in time for the trip.

Other than that, I’m working through the last few weeks of school…in a rough class.  We can’t seem to figure out what the professor is looking for, or what exactly she takes points off for.  So frustrating.  But, it’s my last class.  And, they don’t do any sort of graduation with honors for grad students…so, I really can’t bring myself to care.  I mean, I’m still going to do the work, but I’m not going to stress about it.  Or at least I’m going to try not to.

I’m also in the process of organizing an MBA panel for my professor that sponsored my paper.  Oh the things that sound good over a beer in Germany….haha…it’s been a good experience thus far.  I have some panelists…and HR wants to come, so that’s a good thing, right?

OK….I think that’s it for now.  Must finish the midterm and get ready for tomorrow’s hike….over and out…for now.
