marite,
I am married to a mathematician( albeit an “applied” one, but of a strictly academic kind) , so I hear you . Still, the life of a scientist seems to be just a little bit easier( and the life-saving grants just a little more available) than a life of a “political” scientist( or, God forbid, an Phylosophy major, jk, jk) . But seeing S so excited about his Fall quarter classes( and he will be studying Russian which he chose himself , no pressure, yes, yes, yes) makes it all much easier to bear. :-)
