1 a.m. at the physics building... that is how coveted my laptop is... and because the manufacturer failed to solder one tiny little piece, i (and consequently greg) am forced to prove my dedication to the piece of machinery that i politely asked to work properly for 3 years... why manufacturer? why, for the fifth time must we (i.e. greg, and i, as an onlooker) fix what you failed to make right to begin with?
ah... well...
for tonight anyway, the computer remains in disrepair. =/
About Me
- greg|regan
- why are we here? if you're asking, you must be a dane. kidding. but we do get that question a lot. well, let's see. we were living in a wonderful community in madison, wisconsin with our two little guys, our two cats, our dog, and our car. i was lawyering then mothering. greg was phd'ing in nuclear physics, then post-doc'ing in medical physics. of course a post-doc can't last forever. a position opened up in denmark (and also in st. louis and rochester, mn). if we had to leave our wonderful, supportive community in madison, we wanted it to be a thrilling, when-will-this-opportunity-present-itself-again-? opportunity. denmark was the clear choice. so, we sold our house, our car. supplied st. vinnies with goods to keep their store running for at least a year, said goodbye to our cats, our dog, our wonderful neighbors, our family, and got on a plane for denmark. we have a three year commitment here. and after that... well... that is anyone's guess.
hey you... down there! get me a grilled cheese sandwich.
