While my personal life is big old mess, my professional life keeps getting better and better.
Today there was a webinar for the geothermal play fairway analysis project. Erin came to my office all excited afterward.
Erin: Guess what??? Mark and I just finished watching the webinar. He wants to use YOUR THESIS PROJECT for it.
Me: O_o wait really??
Erin: Yes! It's perfect! Nobody has done it before!
Me: Cool! Well I guess I should have paid more attention to the application instructions, had I known I would be applying.
Erin: I think only Mark can apply. And by the way if we get selected, you would be all set. You would not have to teach anymore, and would be fully funded!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Holy fucking shit. I have the opportunity to win millions of dollars for my department. From MY research! From an idea that *I* came up with!! How cool is that???
Also, one of the companies that I had emailed inquiring about summer internships actually returned the email. Someone actually got back to me! That was unexpected. I'm not sure if I'll get it, because they wanted someone to start right away, but hopefully it will pan out well.
