Still here

-- I haven't killed the mooch officemate, though this evening it was hard when I was trying to work on my manuscript and she was talking to me (which really wasn't all THAT bad since we were talking "Numb3rs") and watching last night's "Daily Show" on the computer (headphones -- that's all I have to say).

-- I haven't killed the roommate, but she softened me up by taking me to get food and giving me her half of October's rent (only August and November left to collect, but I should get one of them out of her next paycheck in two weeks).

-- I haven't been strangled and left to decompose in my apartment.

-- I have voted.

-- I have started studying Reiki, as much as I can around everything else.

-- I have gotten a little childhood-sick after hearing a couple of songs on the radio tonight that reminded me of camp.

-- I have been working on a lab presentation for Friday.

-- I have been thinking a lot about my diss project.

-- I have been working on my manuscript of the fish FA stuff I wrote while still in KS.

-- I have been missing my family and friends.

-- I will learn about edible and useful LA plants on Friday.

-- I will take another stats exam next week.

-- I will get an A in stats. I have spoken.

-- I will bake four dozen ginger spice muffins for the experiment I designed for my stats grad student project.

-- I will figure out how to get wildtype Gambusia to use as breedstock for the diss.

-- I will travel to Lafayette for Thanksgiving.

-- I will buy my ticket home to KS for Christmas.

-- I will go to bed soon. I'm pooped.
