Busy Out of My Mind

Hey guys, I'm going to be busy out of my mind as I start the last two weeks before my thesis has to be finished and ready to defend, most likely pulling 40-50 hours a week on that on top of the 40 hours a week I'm working at MSS. I was able to get a strobelight (actually the university is shipping out the exact one I had been using previously), so I should be in business again as far as that is concerned, but most of the work I have left to do (all ~55 remaining tasks) is writing, and revising some of the old stuff I've previously written. I've got a much better feel for how I want to write the thing, and it might just be possible for me to get this done.

My parents are bringing my sister down to help out for two weeks (while establishing her position as favorite auntie to two little boys), which should really help. Tiff's been having medical problems that more or less made it impossible for me to get any thesis work done during the second half of last week. She's doing a lot better now, but this is going to be tough.

Anyhow, if you guys want some bloggy goodness, Ken seems to be posting a lot of good stuff lately, and Ian over at the MSS blog has been putting up lots of eye-candy. Life's been a little big crazy, and it's going to stay crazy for a while, but the end of my thesis is finally in sight.

I'll post a brief update next Sunday (since I don't do school or work or space related stuff on Sundays).
