How wonderful it was that the exchange rate was at $2 to £1 in the middle of July when Aaron and I needed to pull some money over from the States. It's even better that it's dropped now. We had been thinking about transferring some of our savings from our bank account here to our account in the States, but when I checked the exchange rate earlier today it looked like this
*blarf*Phew! Getting the upper hand every now and then is overrated anyway. Anybody know anything about whether or not the pound is likely to bottom out even more?
Ehh, it could be worse. We could be Australian.
In other news, I submitted my dissertation (as most of you already know) and it was actually over the recommended length, which is kind of crazy. Whenever I think about how big it ended up, I just get images of Sam from Cheers freaking out while screeching, "I touched the book and it got fat!" All I have to do now is try to stay calm while I wait for somebody to be bothered enough to read it...
...still waiting
Some things have been keeping me sane - how grateful I am that I didn't put myself in anything like this situation (link courtesy of my supervisor) and
Aaron's general goofiness :) This guy poked his head up over my computer when my eyeballs were bleeding toward the end of September. He sings.
