Make it stop!!!!!!! AHRGH!!
I'm so tired I don't know what I'm typing anymore. Does this make sense?
"First, the participant was asked to read a list of colors printed in black ink (see Appendix A). They were timed on how long it took to complete the reading. They were then asked to identify the color of a list of symbols in the same manner (see Appendix B). Finally, they were asked to read the same list that was originally printed in black ink, but for this third trial the list was printed in the same series of colors that the symbols were printed in on the second trial."

5 sections done, three to go!
'cept the last three sections are the introduction - in which I have to summarize the five articles I haven't read yet, decipher the data which I've yet to run statistical analysis on, and finally give my discussion on why what happened happened and what sort of problems or situations developed during the experiment.
*headdesk*

I think I've got it now. I'm not done, but I'm almost sure I pretty much know what I'm doing now. I emailed the prof. to make sure my stats were correct. If they are, all I have to do is write out my discussion and finish up my introduction. If they're not, I have to redo my calculations and then do my discussion and introduction. So I'm pretty much at a standstill until tomorrow morning. I could finish up my introduction tonight, but I'm starting to see citations and refrences when I close my eyes. So, looks like tomorrow will be crunch time. I'll have a couple hours before my first class while I'm at work to work on it. And then I've got an hour and a half to work on it between Child Psych and Research Methods to fine-tune it.
So, I? Will stop spamming you all and hit the sheets. Only, not in a dirty way. Because, you know - ah hell, i'm tired, what more do you want?

I had this dream (which I was woken up from) where I was a rodeo cowboy. I was just about to mount the roughest toughest bull known to any man in the west when I got woke up. I was actually kind of dissapointed.
The wierd part? My Horoscope: "It's no accident that your sign's symbol is the bull. Your ability to dig in those heels, or should I say 'hooves,' and charge full speed ahead is legendary, and that goes double for today. Warn everyone: Don't wear red."

Holy Crap!!!

So, my newest dilema is that I'm stark raving exhausted. Like, so exhausted that holding my head up *hurts*. But I have to write Sunlight, but more importantly I have to write my ficathon assignment so I can post it on time.
I don't even know why I'm posting this, other than to say that Sunlight might be a day late this week. But I will post it, I swear. Unless, you know, some freak accident happens. *nervous laughter*
I think I'm going to go and see if I can sleep. If not, I'll try to write some. But honestly all I want to do is sit in this chair and stare blankly at the wall.
