I'm tired

I think that grad school is slowly killing me. I need to get out! I need to know what it's like to be outside in the daytime, to sleep in past 7am, to stare at a computer screen for less than 14 hours every day. What is that life like? I don't even remember... That's why I need to get graduated and move on out of here.

Right, sorry for all the complaining. But I am sick of trying to wade through 27 gigabytes of acoustic data, only to realise that I didn't calibrate the sound levels for changes in the pre-amp gain settings. Now I have to go back and write it all down by hand, and apply it to the data after the fact... Oh well. Such is life, eh?

Well, I think I'll try posting a video. This on cheers me up, it's starring Trooper, mainly. It was after we'd just played scrabble, and I lost (235 - 240). I have a bad habit of gambling on words that I have never heard of but suspected they might make their way into the scrabble dictionary.

I'm glad you appreciate this andrea - trooper is a tough scrabble opponent. He's got some fierce intimidation tactics. Plus mad scrabble skillz.

Hey Michelle - I checked out your video!!! ZOMG! you and john are sooo funny :) It was great seeing you thurs and fri :) My flight ended up being delayed (after we sat on the run way for sometime) so I was going miss my connecting flight (and stay the night in NH) so I ran over to SW and caught the 9:30 flight with 5 mins to spare :) My cold was so bad by then I lost my voice and had to do write down on paper that I needed a ticket!!!
What a day!!!
Have a great x-mas!
