Already it's enough for a thesis
I just got out of a meeting with Mihai, and he said about what I have written that, "already it's enough for a thesis." How so long I've hoped to hear those words. It feels as if ten thousand layers of doom have lifted from my heart. It's not over, yet; there is still a whole bunch of work to do, but with the outline I made and a host of things to include, I have a track to get out of this rut I've dug.
Incidentally, on Saturday I received a rejection letter from Westminster College in SLC. Despite this, I have great hope that I will get a job in the fall. If I don't find one by midsummer, I'm seriously considering moving to LA for the next year. There are numerous community colleges in the area, and they invariably need people at the last minute to teach math. Then I will be in position where I can meet with people from several nearby universities for collaboration, which can put me in a better position for the next round of job applications.
So cheers, everyone! I'll have a beer tonight!
