Against rather steep odds, Mari & I got the grant we applied for to fund me in Finland. This means I can actually go.

Sent in my res permit app yesterday - unless they go outside of their window of how long it's supposed to take, I'll have it by the time I need to leave ;). But I applied for an extra-long stay just in case I don't have it by that time.

This also means I do not need to work myself to death trying to finish prelim #2 by Sept. 1 in order to apply for the smaller-but-still-sufficient travel grant offered by my university. Priority is now redistributed to finishing the paper and designing 2 experiments. November 1 is a good goal, though, because then I can be a dissertator before leaving.

So freakin' cool. If anyone wants me to bring back some salmiakki, speak up!

Yeah, we will totally have to get together.

Are you planning to go back to the US for Thanksgiving? I'm not, and if you're not either, maybe that would be a fun time to meet up? Tickets from Hki to London are not actually that expensive, even nonstop... otherwise I'll have a few months to play with :).
