Another day, another proposal

William Darcy: I don't see why we're taking this sloppy approach. We can watch for electron hopping on the rhenium system.
Elizabeth Bennet: But the rhenium system is optically silent. We won't get the full story and we'll have to do these studies anyway.
William Darcy: We can still publish on the rhenium.
Elizabeth Bennet: Why hit a single when we can get the homerun?
William Darcy: ...because the single is a sure thing.
Elizabeth Bennet: Wuss.
William Darcy: Fruitcake.
Hurst: Fruitcake, where?

Finished writing my 27-page progress report. It's now being read over by my colleagues and I'm supposed to be working on those research proposals that I have yet to write.

But I'm nervous. What if they read it and find it wanting?

*gah* let it go, C. Let's move on. Medium dynamics! Onwards!

Onward!

Up you get! Okay, shoes on. Right, off you go then. Medium dynamics.

Good for you for finishing it! If they find it wanting (little chance), you fix it. In the meantime... medium dynamics!

Right on!

that's why you let the colleagues read it, right? are they like your betas? You'd rather they find it wanting than The People who are at the end of the line!

*proud of you*

And love Darcy and Elizabeth! Wuss! Fruitcake!
