news from the lab....

for those of you who have never been in my lab....let's just say you are missing a lot...I'll post pictures later this week, so you can see where I spend 60-70 hours of my week.

but....the good news is that the freshmen subjects are starting to show up...I should be at almost 70 subjects by the end of this week...which is almost half of those needed to complete my dissertation...if you consider that at the beginning of the quarter I only had 19...I am kicking some serious ass.

Now the credit does not belong completely to me...as much as i hate this....there are two others to thank....first...my new and completely ridiculous lab RA, DT. God he cracks me up....and just way too full of energy...but at least there is someone to entertain me.

Now the second is a little creepier...I am pretty sure my lab is haunted. I asked Buzz if anyone had died down here, and he told me to stop being crazy....as he does....but it is just a little strange, there are lots of strange noises and things move around mysteriously. Not in a bad way, but they just do....Of course the rational thing would to just say, well Vengeance you are completely sleep deprived and just forgetful, but no, I have decided there is a ghost, and I have named it Harry. He hasn't informed me if he likes that name or not, but we'll see. CLC has offered to pray in the lab to make Harry go away...but I think it is nice having him around....Plus what if Harry got all pissed and threw stuff at CLC...that would be bad.....

In other news...My friend Truth came in 3rd in our NCAA tournament pool...which is awesome b/c she normally finishes last....whereas I didn't fair as well....

OH...another announcement...I am officially going to ASA's in Philly...so Truth...you are finally getting me there....I have a big presentation on my dissertation....which hopefully will be almost done at that point...I hope...sweet jesus....Truth and I are going to work this summer...so there is a chance....

ok..over and out for now from the lab
