Stay on Target… Stay on Target… And It’s Away!
by Traveling Matt
I've sent off my package. I am now an official applicant for the commissioning grant. As you can tell by the sleepless, starving, sweat-stinking guy on the right making a stupid face, it was stressful to put together. Thanks to everyone who weighed in and pointed out to me that the good fellow was genuinely offering help and I'd be stupid not to accept it. I deferred to your votes and comments; don't ever say I didn't. I let the Internet tell me how to live my life, and I'm proud of it.
There is an incredibly funny sequel to this story, however, and I'll mention it in a later post…
In the meantime, wish me luck. Those of you who believe in Science, pray heartily for glorious triumph!





YESSSS! There is no doubt in my mind that your package is exquisitely done, quite impressive, and well worth the stress and sleeplessness. I’m proud of you, dahling! Like I just told you, you’ll have fun looking back on today once you get that big, fat check in your hands.
I’ll buy you a turkey leg next weekend to celebrate. : D Hehe.
