So apparently I'm a freaking slacker in all parts of my life.

I had decided about 2 months ago to apply for an award, which, by the way, is due today. I was away for the last 3 weeks and just returned on Tuesday, so I decided to do the application when I returned. Part of the delay is justifiable; until my return, I had no original data whatsoever.

However, I have come to realize that I will most likely do nothing more than embarrass myself if I turn this thing in. I have one page complete, and had thought that was nothing too terrible, until my semi-advisor pointed out I should really add about 4 more pages. There is no way I can complete 4 pages by the end of the day and still make it sound logical. So instead I'm blogging away my self-frustration.

In other news, though, I finally have data. Glorious, glorious data. It even looks like good, sensical data. And I did think of an original research idea, my first ever logical, sensical and damned good idea (if I do say so myself.) Let's see if I can pull it together...
