Post-doc applications have just left the relative safety of my hard-drive and made their way out into the ether. It is both a relief and an utter terror to have them out there.
I am imaging them as little fledgling carrier pigeons sent out into a storm. I am nervous for them. I hope they find their targets, deliver their message, and work their magic.
Please join me in wishing them luck because I am as superstitious as the next scientist. I really hope at least one comes back with good news.
{UPDATE}: Have an informal meeting scheduled for next month - w00t!
