Dinner with Xincheng and committee

I took Xincheng along with thesis committee members Ian Campbell and Philippe Mather, to Creek Bistro for supper. Wonderful as always. Great conversation about movies, China, culture, food, and other stuff (rather than the usual conversations about the thesis and the schedule). This moment is what makes it all worthwhile.
When I got home I felt like I had conversation fatigue from four solid days of talking/teaching/listening. Needed to watch tv. Took a nap and then did so.
