The biggest news from the conference is still sinking in. I did a lot of networking with potential future PIs and it went well. A few might be getting money soon, another would try to write something with me...all good things but not amazing. Anybody getting money lives very far from the Grackle and my's current nesting site and writing something means at least a year of waiting/rejection/rewriting/hoping.
Then I had a meeting with my number one choice of postdoc PI, who is also one of my outside committee members for my dissertation. She has some money right now and in previous meetings we have talked about the possibility of my working in her lab. Well, she is still interested (as am I) and we are planning to talk about dates next week. There is a high possibility that she wants me to start in January. Which means I have to finish this degree. Soon. Really soon.
Commence freakout mode!!!!

But yay for the networking and the possible post-doc position!
woo! freak out! Good luck!
Wow! Having a postdoc potentially lined up is great, though!
I can see why you are freaked out, but hey, it is a good thing in the end. Hope it pans out in the best way possible!
Thanks all! I will find out more very, very soon!
