The morning is crisp, the coffee is hot, the birds are singing, the air is clear and the TJ is calling me. Today, I look back at yesterday and think of how to make today better, learn from my past, apply it to my future and move on without stress. A beautiful day!

Yes! I so need this little bit of inspiration today. I have my PhD dissertation defense today, and then I'm just going to go drive around in the Jeep to de-stress.

Sounds like you live in the right part of California. From what I hear, some of it has some serious fires going on!

You should see the sky up here in Oregon, nothing but smoke and haze from these BC fires!

Congrats on making it to your defense! I'm sure you'll do fine...You literally wrote the book on that particular subject :)

What will your doctorate be in?

I am no where near smart enough to know what that is so I will just say, good luck!

Thanks! My committee is very happy with my work, but it is still stressful until your paperwork is signed. My degree is in neuroscience.

X2! Good luck though, it sounds like you're one smart person!

I'm not smarter than the next guy, I've just been really passionate about science since I was a kid- so here I am.

Well, you've got to be smart to be studying stuff like that. Though I guess we all have our areas of expertise. I know nothing about that whatsoever. My area of expertise is computers and web design / development.
 
I'm one up on y'all.....i married a woman who is very passionate about her career so here i am getting ready to hop in the TJ . Lol
All in fun :)

Yeah, exactly. And I knew almost nothing about Jeeps before May, except that I wanted one, so that's why I'm here to learn from all you experts!

The smoke is reaching all the way to Oregon?! I thought we had it bad in Saskatchewan

My TJ calls to me every morning. I have to force myself to drive the truck once in a while. I love working on it also; recently, due to an addition to our home, I have had neither the time or the place to do anything to the TJ, so I am having 'mod withdrawals'...

Oh yeah, Oregon is covered in the smoke and has been for weeks. It's crazy how much smoke there is down here!
 
Hm, well maybe not so much. My doctorate is a non-clinical, basic science doctorate specifically because I wanted to avoid crazy people. [emoji6]

Smart, very smart. Besides, science is just cool.

Cool. I took a graduate class in neurobiology way back. I thought it was the most interesting class. Lots of different profs. My favorite class was on the neurobiology of the eye. It was so fascinating! Hope you have a great defense and a nice drive afterwards! I'm sure you'll be fine! CongArats. Yes, envision rats doing the conga, just for fun! ;)

Some days we can't even see the sun, and I'm farther away from the fires than you
