Last weekend in Giessen
Saturday Morning
Every morning, if I needn't send my son to his kindergarten, I would get up later than him. A bit shame! This morning, he woke up me, and gave me a hug. Then he said: you have power now and you can get up. I was insatiable, asked for a bear hug. He put his stuffed teddy bear handed me.
Saturday evening
Received my husband's video call. It was not surprise, this is Saturday evening. "Wait. I have something to show you", first sentence, then he disappeared. Since he spoke first, I had to say "I have something to show you too". Webcam moved, moved slowly. At last, "Wow...". Actually, I knew he would show me some food (normally is food material). He cooks delicacies for himself almost every weekend, like Porterhouse steak, Fresh Shrimp, Huge crab, Razor fish and so on. I had to say he loves sea food. This time, dangdangdangdang, Huge Lobster, I really "Wow~". This guy spent more than $30 bought a 4 pounds Lobster for his Saturday lunch. Great! I will not tell what I showed to him. Although I spent more than 10 times money. But anyway, what I bought can be used for couple of years, not only for 20 minutes lunch.
Sunday evening
A few days ago, I was bothered with the submission of INPC2013 proceedings to arXiv. I have submitted it to the organizer earlier. But I can not submit it to arXiv. I decided try again. At the mean time, my Chinese friends were discussing about the goodbye party for me in QQ group. I kept glancing on their progress. It seems there would be a lot of nice food and drinks. After a while, some results came out. My status was: still thinking. I was not thinking actually. A special party for me! Anyway, I would be happy. However, I made a mistake. I sent a technical question of tex.bib. I got complain immediately:
You are talking to her about party. She is talking to you about research.
When you talk to her about research, guess what she will talk?
When you talk to her about research, guess what she will talk?
(你和她谈聚餐,她和你谈科研,
你和她谈科研,她和你谈什么?)
Dr. Hu wrote it in Chinese originally. He is good at Chinese poetry. Even a complaint can be rhyme! Hum! Anway, I feel really sorry ruined their mood to prepare a perfect party.
The party came in Sunday evening as it planned. In addition to their special personal cuisine, Dr. Liang brought cheese cake and ice cream. Sweet! I'm the girl addicted to sweets. The party went on as usual except we talked about who is the next one to leave, and the possible place we could meet again. Not very sad after I have experienced my son's farewell breakfast, and heard someone said "farewell" personally to me.

I saw that your paper appeared in the arXiv this morning! I had trouble uploading my INPC paper (http://arxiv.org/abs/1305.6855). I never seem to be able to submit there without some problem. I'm sure 15 years ago I would have had no problem, but the inevitable difficulties of getting older and dealing with technology have set in!
回复删除Actually, looking back, it seems that my first arXiv submission was made almost exactly 13 years ago at http://arxiv.org/abs/nucl-th/0008004
It turns out that one of the figure's name is in .eps but others are in .EPS. Stupid somehow. I have to say this is relatively easy to find. I still remember once time (about 9 years ago), I confused one or two 1 with l in a Fortran code in Linux system. Wow...
