Wednesday I gathered my strength, make some last minute tweaks, took a deep breath, and sent the 2nd draft of my paper off to my advisor.

Then I exhaled. I figured I now had a few days to get some WORK DONE! Thursday I got results from two experiments (one interesting, one failed…AGAIN). I decided that I would spend friday mostly at home, setting up my references in Endnote, reading some relavent papers that come out recently, and most importantly get some WEDDING THINGS DONE! But first get a new battery for my cell phone, because it is dead as a doornail and I am a lost puppy without my cellphone.

Then I got an email at the end of the day thursday. From the advisor. She had read the draft and made her comments IN ONE DAY, was fedexing it to me so I would get it friday morning, take a few hours to look things over, and then call her on the phone at 3 to discuss what changes need to be made.

Fuck.

So there went my friday. I am still without cell phone. And without a limo for the wedding. Both of which I will remedy Satuday, I hope.

At least the conversation with advisor went relatively well. She feels the paper is coming together well and that it should be ready to go very soon. Of course, there are plenty of adjustments to make, collaborator data to include, REFERENCES TO ADD.

I had PLANNED ON DOING THAT TODAY!!!

grrrr.

Mexican food for dinner, though. Mmmmm…
