Well, perhaps the title above is a bit misleading. I haven't exactly been off squandering my inheritance while living the wild life.
Actually, that latter part of that description might be rather accurate. Things have been pretty hectic for Matt and me until this past week. Starting in April, these are the things that have prevented me from posting updates of any kind:
1) Matt submitted and successfully defended his thesis.
You may now refer to him as Doctor E. Which means that you should refer to me as Mrs. Doctor E...thank you in advance for remembering this.
2) I finished my first year of graduate school.
Booyah! I am officially 50 percent done.
3) Matt officially graduated from Princeton University.
Why only have graduation festivities on one day when you can spread it over FIVE days? That is the question that Princeton University must have asked itself at some point. However, the graduation was wonderful in that both our families were able to attend. Yes, we called in all of our visits at one time.
4) I started a full-time summer position in NYC.
This involves commuting 5 days a week into the city, a step up from my student schedule (which required commuting 3 days).
5) We took a 7 day road trip to the south (more on this later), making stops in Mississippi, Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina.
6) We moved from our home of two years.
The packing and moving process started almost immediately upon returning from our epic road trip. We have great timing.
Anyway, this is to explain my absence...sorry to all you who were waiting with baited breath to learn more about our lives...I am sure there are dozens of you, right? <Crickets chirping> Right?
Be on the lookout for some posts in the near future!
