HE PASSED!!We found out a few days ago that Sonny passed his comps, making him officially *almost* ABD. Next up, orals. Then he puts together his prospectus, gets it approved (of course!), then we head down to Mexico so he can do his fieldwork. Meanwhile, he was accepted with a full scholarship/fellowship to study Zapotec in Juchitan, Oaxaca this summer, and there's enough money for me to go too. What a life. I tell you. We'll spend six weeks down there beginning July 1. 2:59:36 PM | Plus, I'm almost done with my project. Phew. We fly out to LA next week. I can't wait! I intend to start blogging again after next week. I'm thinking about moving the site to my .mac space because, well, I'm already paying for it and it includes nearly 1G of space, and Salon has stopped supporting its blog community (no new blogs, no clear link on their front page). But who the hell knows!! I've got a couple of photos I'll post later and a billion ideas running through my mind. I just wanted to give our handful of cyber friends the good news. Yippee! |
