I am back in Costa Rica (I got back on Friday early and finally made it to La Selva a couple of bus and taxi rides later in the afternoon). I must say, it is really great to be back. Miami was OK, but pretty boring and uneventful. I made some heavy decisions about my next semester and it looks like I will be able to stay in Costa Rica until Christmas. I got a few fellowships that will let me stay here to write (with no teaching obligations). That should put me on track/ahead of the game as far as writing my dissertation and graduating next year. It is so weird that the ends of my experiments are within sight.
I am really glad that I will be able to stick around in the rain forest for another few months -- it is so great here and I will miss the forest so much when I eventually get back to Miami. This also means that my parents will be able to visit me in Costa Rica (a second time for my mom)!

Hey, I'm glad you are back in Costa Rica. And congrats on being able to stay til the end of the year (without teaching too - yay!)
How long do you have to stay in Miami when you are all done? Hopefully not too long, right? (Florida is icky poo.)
Woo-hoo, I will only have a few months of Miami-living when I am done here. Annoying, but tolerable -- the people there are just the WORST!
