Excitement (and other things) overload

Unrelated note: I'm loving Emily's new passion for Excel -- we've gotten pretty tight since graduating from college, too, but nothing compared to what I assume will be the depth of our relationship after my first year of grad school (read: biostatistics). Woohoo! If you really want to learn (the friend who sent this to me said if you make it through these tutorials you'll "know more about Excel than 99 percent of the population"), check out this link in addition to Emily's: http://www.biostat.umn.edu/~susant/FALL07PH6414DESC.html (scroll down a ways; you'll see it)

Frazzled note: I apologize for a lack of coherence here, but if you take anything away from my post, let it be to never, in one week:

  • Have a 9-to-5 job
  • Be in charge of marketing for a large-scale event that's a week and a half away
  • Supervise a 35-hours-a-week intern
  • Take 1.5 graduate credits. In 26 classroom hours. With readings. And papers.
  • Train in for a research assistant position (that you'll be starting next week, when you'll still have your other fulltime job and upcoming event)
  • Drive six hours for a wedding/to introduce The Boyfriend to The Extended Family for the first time
AND, perhaps most importantly...
  • Don't try to blog about it while it's happening!
Wow, is it only Wednesday? But really, it's all super-exciting, and I promise to recap next week -- after a nice, long nap (yeah right). Happy Hump Day! For those of you who are counting...
