Top o' the mornin' to ye

Its been a hard weekend, I've spent the best part of 20 hours sat at my computer doing stupid stupid statistics and writing thousands of words. My brain is well and truly fried by numbers and I've got RSI in my hands from typing so much!

After all that, I've found very little, if anything interesting. So much for my stupid research. All that data and most of what I've got isn't statistically significant. (I'm well and truly fed up of that phrase too!) I'm fed up with P Values, fed up with means, medians, chi squared, t-tests and all the other rubbish that comes with statistics. Oh well, at least I've done the best part of my project option now. 2 and a half weeks to go to tinker with it and see if I can make something useful/vaguely exciting.

The end of term is in sight, the end of my project option is finally in sight and its less than a month till elective departure!!!!!!!

Tomorrow I'm going to Dublin for 2 nights with missbliss, I need it after this weekend, I literally haven't stopped working. It hasn't been too bad, once you get in the zone you're ok. Yesterday I didn't move out of my chair for 7 hours solid! (I had missbliss running around after me getting me drinks/bacon sandwiches!

Anyways, I'm looking forward to a nice short break in Dublin tomorrow, and a trip to Devonia next weekend whilst finishing off my project in between.
