My chair called this afternoon to say that the provost's office is recommending promotion and tenure. Which doesn't make it official--there is that whole board of trustees rubber stamping thing--but let's just say I'll be putting in a sabbatical application.
I know I've said it before, but it really is astonishing how my tenure timeline and pregnancy timeline have gone hand-in-hand...
Now if only that small press would accept my book...
OMG OMG OMG. YAYAYAYAYAYAY! I've been so consumed with midterms and grading and tons of bullshit that I haven't commented but this post is just awesome news!
