so i need to finish my thesis this week, and i still have several chapters to write. my days now get divided into 1) "quality brain time" during which i am ideally writing cogent introduction and discussion content for my thesis chapters, 2)"poor quality brain time" during which i do things like write the methods and results and deal with formatting, and 3) "sleep", a phase which is never long enough and only occurs after phase 2 has deteriorated to a state where there is no point in staying up any longer.
is drinking too much coffee supposed to make you feel nauseous? or is that lack of sleep...
i'm pretty sure i used to be able to tolerate this kind of work schedule in college, at least for short periods of time. i guess sometime in the last 6 years, i got old.

I totally know what you mean about "quality" and "poor quality" brain time. Lack of sleep can definitely mess with your stomach! It makes me nauseous too.
Lots and lots of luck this week!! I read this entry last night and I guess it was on my mind because I dreamed we went to San Diego to cheer you on, and everywhere in the hallways in your building your friends were popping up with "go girl!" signs and snacks and things. :)
