Qualifying exams actually take weeks. There’s a verbal exam, written exam, and a systematic literature review that you need to write. Quals usually takes a couple dozen hours. It’s brutal.

I might! One of the places I’ll be applying for internship and my post-doc training is the Boston VA. Although our first choice will be heading back to Arizona, because that’s where my wife and I’s family is located.

Looks like the DEDs may be getting a new HVAC. Current one is 14 years old and the copper coil is shot and leaking freon. We could change out the coil but then all the other components would still be old and mismatched.

Looked at our invoice on the old unit (5 ton seer 15) which was $6500. New Train with a higher seer 16 is now almost double.

64 on the dog walk. Current of 71, headed to 84.

Got an estimate in a half hour for sealing the driveway and patio pavers. Wish me luck on that... Dude said $1.50 a square foot is standard. 3 car driveway and patio. Probably over 1000 sq ft, yeah? d'oh!

To do it right requires chemicals for cleaning, power washer, another machine for scrubbing with the chemicals, thorough rinsing, sealing and then finally... using sand (appropriate kind of sand) to fill in the cracks between the pavers. It's a pretty involved process that I have never done and really don't want to do.

I'd prefer a concrete driveway, however the whole neighborhood has paver driveways and patios. Pavers look awesome when cleaned and sealed right. Concrete is much easier to maintain.

We live on a sandy soil that's prone to shifting. Even when properly compacted. That's the main reason why people use pavers.

Yup, and I know that place well, it's quite the attraction!

If you ride 1400 miles to Tucson, I hope you get some quality mexican food, too, while you are there.
