Yep, two-year postdoc... I mention moving to Maine and everyone's eyes seem to light up. Everyone has this preconceived notion that Maine is "beautiful"... and I think it is for about 3 months out of the year, but I'm also pretty certain winter doesn't ever seem to end...

Having a 2nd kid isn't really a beat.. but after finishing up I was hoping to drink beer and play poker for about 2 straight weeks. With the baby coming it's go go go on the eleventy billion things that need to get done before we move.
