ABD

Yesterday, I was asked if Eric and I went out to celebrate since I passed my prelim exam. And of course we didn't, maybe because I feel like I really am nowhere near being done. Then she said, but you are ABD (all but dissertation or all but defense). And I guess that is pretty big. I didn't realize I technically could now apply for jobs and be ABD. That is kind of cool. I was telling Eric and last night with dinner he opened up some wine-very sweet of him.

I guess my weekend trip can be my celebration-as I have been looking forward to this for quite some time. I will get to see all of my friends I haven't seen in a while over the long weekend. I know this will be a great weekend!
