Well people it's crunch time...

Thursday May 5th, this coming Thursday, I will be defending my thesis. I am nervous but I know I have written a quality paper, so the only thing I am truly nervous about is drawing a blank when asked a question by my committee, but I don't think that will happen, I am confident on my knowledge on the subject and my understanding of it.

My thesis is Utilitarian and Industrial Ceramics in Montana in the Late 19th and Early 20th centuries. It basically looks at brickyards and things of that nature when my state was starting out, what they might have brought in with them, what they made when they got here, and what they imported once the rail expanded West as well.

So I humbly ask for positive vibes, prayers, thoughts, juju, whatever you got, if you would please send it my way I would appreciate it. Gonna be a hectic week and I am hoping to have a big ass smile on my face at the end of it.

From this year forward Cinco de Mayo is going to mean something more to me one way or the other.
