I'm working at home today and tomorrow. Hubby has taken our daughter out. Yup. I'm, working hard. Yes I am. Right now in fact. Oh yes.No more internet peeping. Oh no.

Maybe just one more refresh before I get stuck in....

Finalising my final, final data prep zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

hehe, I am working as well. why not just enjoy it? I wanna finish a journal paper this easter. and planning some other papers/works.. can't wait to see them getting published, nervious and excited..

I have to get the security to unlock the building to let me in and out! I feel sort of bad about making someone cross the campus to do this...but...fortunately I can still get to the vending machine with coffee. It appears the local grocery stores have all shut down for the Easter long weekend!

I am the only one in the department and this is great! I am enjoying it!

Only problem is I'm doing the absolutely most tedious aspect of the whole project - the data prep before the analysis. I guess there always has to be something tedious. And this is definitely it. Did I mention it was tedious?

I think I need more tea.

My back and neck is sore too, sjo4!! Think i must lean my head to one side when i type. Tis damaging to your health writing a thesis!!

I'm peering at tiny 18th century newsheet type. So tiny, so headache inducing!

There's a bottle of wine downstairs calling to me.

OK. So I complete 2 more files and I can have a glass. Or maybe one more file then one glass - another file - another glass......

That sounds so much better than coffee from the coffee vending machine. I am trying to decide how hard I really feel like working into the evening...I really should carry on because if not, I will just have to do it at some point over the next two days...

Man I'd kill for an ice cold beer, instead of writing this, hence there is no beer in my fridge -damn!

No beer in your fridge? A school boy mistake...

unfortunately deliberate

beer in fridge = no work

even when I try convince myself that I can have one while writing - no, no, no!

We have a bottle of some sort of coffee liqueur from a business trip and I have found it is the one thing you can drink and actually get more alert. I'm saving it for The Final Countdown to submission.

i just finished up a whole lot of things - so now i am taking it easy! the next 10 days or so will be devoted to important issues such as buying a new bike (my funding arrived), getting a cat from the local pet home, getting bureaucracy stuff done, cleaning up the house from top to bottom, going for walks (depending on the weather), watching DVDs, reading a good book, gardening, and the like. that's my vacation for this year.

Still working on the database today zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

But at least I just heard WE SOLD OUR HOUSE AT LAST!

Is it snowing where you are? It's snowing a ton here but melting.

on the sale of your house, that is fantastic! I am sure that is a wonderful bit of news! It has snowed off and on where I am, but it seems to be melting, and there are odd bursts of brilliant sunshine, and then more snow and sleet and clouds.
