2009 was a pretty awesome year in many ways. Got engaged, got married, to name a couple of significant ones. :) I also lost two grandparents, and had a really rough time at my job. But mostly the year was good

Sorry to hear about the holiday.
You are going for the PhD??? At Waterloo? Tell me all about it! That's a pretty significant change in your view since the last time I heard about it.
Jim is kind of at the crossroads of trying to figure out whether to do a master's after undergrad, a PhD, or work. If he went to grad school, it would probably be in statistics, but he's only recently started thinking grad school might be something he'd like, and so who knows really. I was actually going to ask you -- do you think you might have any advice for him, having known a lot of people who did various mathy master's and seen a lot of people start mathy PhDs as well? I think back in Berkeley I have a phone card that calls to Canada, so I could put you guys in touch that way if that'd be okay with you.

A PhD, eh? But that takes research!

I'm still not sure if I'm going to do it, even if I get the funding. I suppose I should have written "deciding whether to do a PhD" instead. :) There may be other significant life events to take into consideration as well...

You can give him my email address if that works better. I don't really know that much actually, but I'd be happy to help if I can.

Sorry to hear the hubby's under the weather!

Here's hoping you both have a spectacular 2010! :D

Good luck with the funding, and the deciding. Yay craft projects! Sorry to hear Snuggles is under the weather... tell him to get well soon. OR ELSE...!
