Nov. 25th, 2005 10:40 pmWhoo. Somehow it feels like Sunday, and it's only Friday. o.O; No clue how that works.
Thanksgiving was really quite good - Michelle and David hosted a dinner for those of us who hadn't left town, so it was them, David's (very nice!) parents, me, Audra, Carlos, and Valerie all for dinner. There were yummy appetizers (stuffed mushrooms and salmon and cheese and crackers!), an awesome dinner with smoked turkey and walnut stuffing and something with beets and asparagus and potatoes and cranberry sauce, and homemade pumpkin and pecan pies PLUS homemade ice cream for dessert! And I had some very awesome apple juice since I wasn't much inclined to help them go through all their wine and stuffs. :D;;
Spent about an hour or so at the vet today, as well. ( Catstuffs, because I'm sure not everyone is interested in the health of my cat. ^^; )
Uhm... Other than vet excitement, I came home and have been working on my paper/talk on RR Lyrae stars all afternoon. (For those of you that don't know and might actualy at least care to know what I'm talking about, they're stars that get brighter and dimmer and they're useful for measuring the distance to the groups of stars they're in, which is good in astronomy.) It's... going, though perhaps not as productively as it ought to, but I have a bunch of other stuff I want to get done too. I think I'm gonna work on that ZAMS project a bit too, and maybe start doing research on the MESSENGER mission, because OMG my talk for that is the 8th or something. o.o;; And I haven't had much luck, but at least the talk's only like ten minutes long. But there's a paper to go with that. ><; And I have to get my lab report done for the same day, and I haven't quite figured out how to reduce the data yet. But that I have to ask someone about. At least I can get the grading done for 3018. There was one problem that I couldn't do, but I mentioned it to the professor and he said I was right that you couldn't do exactly what the book wanted. So yay for that at least.
I wonder how many trees I've killed printing out papers. >>; Probably too many.
