end of the March

Well, it's done, and it was somewhat successful. A crapload better than it would have been!

Accomplishments:
data collection - all in all, we did a very solid job on this front, with the clothing study still underway and a study coming down the pike in the sully line of work.
posters and such - people are basically ready for WPA, with minor exceptions and tuneups still to come.
reviews - done.
Beck grant - applied for.
service projects - no progress at all on one of them (waiting until Fall); other one is in progress, if slowly.
important errands - house is in escrow, license is renewed, car will be registered tomorrow.

Misfires:
writing - the big one. really almost nothing done on this front, in large part because of uninspiring and/or missing data.
exercise - um...yeah. didn't so much do any of that.

lots of war analyses, poster virtually done; some grading; uploaded Angela’s survey to the site we're surveying from.

Worked for a while on the war letters poster, much of which was reading articles. Also got feedback to Alex on his poster and chatted with Sully and Erin about theirs.

M of I, Day 31

3/31, Wednesday:

Played cards with my friends, which was nice. Also integrated some new gum data from Alex and analyzed it (looks bad), looked at the data from Simon's old lab group (looks bad), finished my analysis of the war letters data (looks decent). Edited Alex's poster some. Did a touch of grading. Moved $10k to Rebecca's account for house-buying!
