I Married A Doctor!

[sass_in_the_pants]

so don't even ask for it.

After three and a half years, Guy finished his thesis and got his PhD.

If you're interested, his dissertation is called 'The Refinement of the Genetic Susceptibility Loci for Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms.'

This is the exciting sequel to 'Whole Genome Expression Profiling Reveals a Significant Role for Immune Function in Human Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms'

Sounds like a real page turner, huh? or did you get bored halfway through reading the title? Yeah, I thought so.

That boy is wicked smart. I went to his public defense. I understood his first slide, it was the title page. And the second slide, which showed a normal aorta and one with an aneurysm...okay, got it so far. And then the third slide looked like the instructions for how to set up my home entertainment system and it was all downhill from there.

Some of our friends also came to the public defense. There were about 40 of his peers there, and then there was us. We all just kept giggling, the way people who don't understand ANYTHING of what's going on giggle. We were like 'Holy crap! Is that the same Guy who eats lightbulbs? Is this the same Guy who jumped off the garage roof but said it would be okay because he was holding an umbrella?'

I mean, I'm married to him, and I always knew he was kinda smart...but, damn, I had no idea. Really, like no idea.

I keep looking for a tweed jacket with leather patches on the sleeves, cuz if you're going to be a professor, you'll get laughed out of the teacher's lounge without one of those, but I can't find any on the cheap.

Oh yeah, and what does one get to do with a PhD in molecular biology and genetics? Very bad things to mice. Very. Bad. Things. He starts his new job in March at U of M, and all I can tell you is that you don't want to be reincarnated as a lab mouse. It's a very, very rough life.

Congrats to your hubby! Quite an accomplishment!

[hunhee]

Definitely an accomplishment. I commend him

[CandyQuackenbush]

Many many congrats. He deserves it!

[Kit Kat P]

Congratulations to the two of you.

If and once we meet, I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever be able to look at him without seeing this visual in my head. I don't care if he's going off about genome this, geeit'sagnome that, RNA/DNA this, ribolavins that. I will see him on a garage roof with an umbrella.

But the tweed jacket with patches is gonna be there, too.

Congrats to both of you, and I'll do my borderline-PETA-member best to forget about the mice altogether...

but that does work.

you just need a big enough umbrella

say a patio parasol

Don't forget a pipe. Those scientific professor types always have a pipe.
