Update

I now have ~nine and a half pages (single-spaced) of my chapter 1 written... that doesn't include figures (of which I have at least three to include) or references... and I still have to write the sections on "Fetal Programming/Fetal Origins of Adult Disease," "Animal Models" and "Thesis Objectives" (all of which I've done the research for, but just need to get written down). Plus I need to re-organize the section on "Fetal Bone Development" (which currently looks as if I cracked my skull open and everything I've ever read on FBD has poured out haphazardly onto the page). I think that, with some luck, I may be done this thesis in time for the 2010 Olympics.
