that I will both get my period and hear that I have failed to secure four years' worth of funding for a large research project (and hence a chance of a promotion), in the next 2 days. Although the funding (my chances of getting which have been rated as so low as to be invisible, by colleagues) was supposed to be decided in November, but they are notoriously tardy. So perhaps the larger disappointment will hold off till next week.

did you get a chance to respond to comments? we did ...
Yes, we responded to 4 sets of comments. Two were positive, but I don't know why one of them bothered sending them in. One was mixed, but relatively easy to respond to. One was negative and somewhat biased, and I only hope our response came over non-ranty and less biased in comparison to hers (I think I know who wrote it).
When I was an academic I hated that phase of having to respond. Particularly when it was bleeding obvious who it was and why they were being bitchy.
Hoping that at least one of these waits brings you good news.
