Oh well...

I did not get nominated. :P

I'm hoping that I end up thinking this is a good thing because the NEH doesn't allow people to apply both for the summer stipends and for some of the other research grants...

Other suggestions of a silver lining are welcome.

Also, I'm still applying for two more external grants and two internal ones, so it's not the end of the road, by a long way. Still feeling pretty cranky about it though...
