Ewan passed his dissertation defense on Thursday afternoon, and we have been celebrating ever since. He did a fantastic job with his public talk, and although the defense part with his committee was very tough he did an excellent job and passed with some corrections.

Here is the completely finished draft of Ewan’s dissertation! A lot of late nights, sweat and tears went into this puppy, all 310 pages of it (at this point). I can’t say how proud I am of his accomplishments. This project really is amazing, even for a dissertation, in my humble opinion. Of course, there [...]

Tonight Ewan and I watched a documentary called “Jesus Camp” about Pentecostal Christians and the way they raise their children that was nominated for an Oscar this year. It’s a really intense, thought provoking movie that attempts not to take sides, but I think it’s impossible to watch this movie and not have a very [...]

Wow, a lot of stuff has happened in the past week. Ewan got accepted into vet school at Dublin, wait listed at Edinburgh (after being rejected, go figure), and now finally accepted at Madison. Wahoo! He’s currently interviewing at Prince Edward Island and is not all that impressed, and he’s planning on canceling his interview [...]
