I recently heard that a friend of mine from grad school who was maybe four years behind me, who is due to defend her thesis this spring, who won a Hubble Fellowship, has been offered a tenure-track faculty position at one of the places I applied to (and was rejected from) this year.

I am such a loser.

Oh, come on, I had a whole TWO MONTHS AND 19 DAYS between DS2's birth and my defense! And the cancer was a pretty wussy one, the chemotherapy really did a number on it.

But I do appreciate you putting it all in context for me, really. Thanks. :)
