H2H and OG Lou,
thanks for the visits and the positive reinforcement. All kidding aside, the geekiness really did work wonders for me, for my M...I think one of the reasons why I love DB so much is that it was just perfect for the way I think...very logical, very detail oriented, etc. Once I embraced it I kinda ran with it!

TBH, there are times when I wonder if I shouldn't apply the same rigor to my R today just as kind of a checkpoint...I fear falling into old patterns and losing what we've gained.

Having a good weekend...it snowed a fair amount here on Friday but after h studied for a while we went out to a late movie...this was kind of a 180 for BOTH of us! usually we pack it in fairly early if we've been home for a while but it was a movie we both wanted to see so off we went! had a good, casual, lowkey time.

Saturday I ran errands early (lots of them) and then came home and cooked for a while. made some wild rice pilaf and my world famous (least in my own universe) lentil soup. combined with the stuff I made last week we've got food to last a while! last night we went to see "Sideways" which was quite good and then out to a quick bite.

h is still horribly sick so we ended up not going to our friend's house this afternoon. we've both been home doing homework and being low key. I may try to clean up some around here -- I've been doing AOS (laundry, cooking, etc) but Im totally overwhelmed with the clutter...I think I've just got to bite the bullet and do something about it.

h was very sweet a little while ago...he came in an apologized and said that he felt like he had been "not focusing" on me of late...I know what he means and it's totally understandable (under tremendous pressure at school, sick as a dog, among other reasons) but I don't think that either of us have been giving him enough credit for how much he DOES take me into account SO WELL despite the enormous pressure. I told him how much I appreciated him talking about it with me. Got a big hug and kiss after that.

Rest of the day will be low key. back to work tomorrow. blech. I DO have a meeting with a career counselor at school...likely that she'll have some suggestions on how to attach the post-MBA job market! hooray!
