It went okay...
Mostly, it's just an issue of my advisor never being able to make up her mind about anything. She wants to do 10,000 experiments on everything under the sun, but I have limited resources, time, and patience.
The senile old lady was obliging. Didn't put up much of a fuss. Was pretty awake. There was one memorable moment when she started picking her nose. I thought she might stop after I caught a look at her doing it. Instead she just went in deeper. I believe she was picking her sinus at that point. Definitely in past her knuckle. I didn't miss a beat.
T was good. we talked about my parents mostly. It went by quickly, and talked very fast.
Lunch meeting was good. Once again, my advisor was not focused or prepared. She kept on making mountains out of molehills, while skirting how we're going to address the substantial criticisms of our paper. Me and the 2nd author had a mini meeting afterwards to actually make a decision on how to proceed. Lindenblossom gets to do the writing. Narcissa gets to do the data analysis.
Then I felt kind of faint. maybe low blood sugary. went home. tried to buy vanity fair at the bookstore. they're out. bought chocolate instead. the godiva pumpkin truffles. they are splendieriferous.
now I'm home.
voila.
pdoc tomorrow. what should I say **yawn**
