Just working

Last night Brian had a party at the house to celebrate his birthday (the big 28!). I am not much of a party person and usually try to avoid them, so it was weird wanting to go to bed but not being able to escape it. At least it was mostly people from BoZo, so I recognised a lot of faces and said hello to a couple of people. Brian was cool about trying to keep the house from getting too out of hand and he started kicking people out at a decent hour so I was able to get in a good amount of sleep despite the revelries.

Lately I have just been pretty much trying to get as much work done as possible. Now that 98% of my stats are worked out for my thesis, all I have to do is write. The bulk of my intro has been done for a while, and last week I handed in a full draft of a chapter to be read by my three advisers. I hope to finish my second big chapter within a few days, then all I will have to do is the discussion chapter, revisions, formatting, and other odds and ends. It will be only four chapters, but they will be pretty darn meaty :P

I have also been working at Dash Thursdays and Fridays (unfortunately, no weekends). Yesterday I put in my two-week notice, which I don't think the new owner noticed (seriously, no joke!). It will be interesting to see what will happen when I leave, and Conor, who works every day, will probably leave soon after as me. I realised the other day that besides Conor, I have been working at Dash the longest. When Michael took over, everyone quit and he didn't bother to hire any new staff; there used to be about 12 or 13 working, now there is only 7, including myself! If they don't hire some new people to be trained by Conor before he leaves, they will surely be in a pickle :P

Now back to work!
