Well .... the application is in. Of course I can still withdraw at any time but I'm over the first hurdle. Unfortunately I procrastinated too long on Saturday and Sunday morning and wound up finishing it in a huge hurry late Sunday night. I woke up on Monday thinking 'OMG did I really write that?' and I'm pretty down on myself at the moment. If I read that c**p I'd just throw the application out. At least I've reduced the danger of having to make a final decision.
