I read your update about your H and for me that was one of those head in hand moments. If he is only concerned about those early sparks then (in my opinion) he is setting himself up for a lifetime of shallowness and disappointment.
Sounds good about OMUG, its a phrase I picked up from these boards that I now use quite a lot in real life 'No need to borrow problems from tomorrow'
Anyway sounds like you're having fun with the hiking so that's good. And i cant remember if I said already but congratulations on having the paper accepted
