lady_songsmith-Got midterm back in Quant, and then got told it might not even count for our grade. Much o.O-ing ensued. I am, at least, in the upper hump of the bimodal distribution. I could be higher, I think, but I don't really feel like point-picking (and there are some major question marks regarding lost points) when it won't really count.
-Went to lunch with friends, got decidedly silly doing an "economic" analysis of relationships.
-Gave blood. I really wish they would listen to me about which vein to try. I've lost count of how many times I've given, and every time they take it from this one particular spot, it's a quick, painless stick, I'm done in about 5 minutes, and I don't bruise at all. The four times they've taken it somewhere else, it hurts, takes 10-15 minutes or more, and I get bruising ranging from the diameter of a quarter to a drinking glass. This one looks to be quarter-sized, thankfully, but the stick hurt like heck.
-Napped. Naps are good and fun and lovely.
-Researched more for memo. Am beginning to be of the opinion that memo research is sorta like thesis writing -- in the words of my thesis advisor, "deadlines exist to force you to stop working on it." Seriously, if you'd told me in undergrad that I needed a full page of references for a three-page paper, I would have laughed til I cried. Now? I get that much easily, and could have more.
