...finished....I think....

Yesterday morning I sent off a finished draft of a book chapter to my co-author. I have been working on this paper for what feels like an eternity. What a relief! Of course, it will probably come back at me soon, fraught with red ink and requests for revisions...but I'm so happy to get the damned thing off my desk for the moment. Now I can move on to other research, other papers, other lectures...same old stuff.

Back to revising a student's project outline.
