Still, he has acquired a brilliant education in business in a few short months, I'm sure that knowledge will come in handy in the future.
I know in IT the era of specialization has changed. Specialists have to keep changing specialties to follow the market, but generalists who know business and tech and communication and people always find work.
Do you think H agrees with your "looking on the bright side" assessment?

I struggle to find enough time and energy throughout the week to work on the work-related things I want to be doing (such a writing new patient education materials, etc.).
How about taking a NaNoWriMo-style approach, and breaking it down into so many words a day as a goal, then doing your best to at least write something each day? I didn't hit 2k yesterday; I'll spend a lot of time shopping and cooking on Sunday, but I'm going to keep at it whether I make my daily quotas or not. Sooner or later, I'll have my draft, as long as I just keep doing my best to do something. Baby steps add up over time.

he is currently quite motivated by the prospect of being able to graduate a year early. He has set himself an ambitious schedule to make that happen, and so far he is sticking to it.
Sounds like a plan.

Last weekend we celebrated my mom's 75th birthday. My sister and I gave her a present - a trip to Paris in the fall with both of us!
Cool! Uh, wait a second. Did you ever see the "Night Court" episode where John Larroquette welcomes his parents to NYC from their native Paris? Paris, Louisiana. You mean the big Paris, right?

So who's learning French in your family now?

I figure S20's best chance at finding the nerdy girl for him is right there at Berkeley, so he'd better make good use of his time there!
"Nerdy girl?" What about opposites attracting, complementarity and all that.

D16 is doing okay. She's a little upset that S15 might graduate high school before her!
Any chance that would be a motivator to her, or is it more likely to annoy her?
I may ask some medical questions, but not for me. It's for a friend. Really. No, seriously, I might want to ask for the sake of realism in my novel. One of the characters is ill already, and we're less than 2k into it.
Thanks,
