Silence--I kill you.
I have stress. GAH.
If nothing (else) bad happens, I will have a mere 15 participants for the Memory Cues experiment. That is all kinds of not enough. Despite what some people in my old Experimental Psych course thought, 15 people do not dictate sound results. We had 29 last time and I thought THAT was too little as well.
Why is the number so low? Welll...
3 no-shows
2 computer crashes
3 early-leavers
2 Carissa-is-an-idiot double-booked people (I don't want to talk about it)
True, only the last 2 carissa-is-an-idiot epic failures are my fault, but I still feel that the whole thing is my fault. My mentor is re-allocating grand funds to pay me for this and she will have nothing to show for it.
I have 25 more timeslots before August 6th (each with the potential to house 2 participants apiece) and only 5 people are signed up.
Head + desk. Repeat.
In other news, Chris comes back today! This is good, because I am learning that when he is gone for an extended period, I begin to develop the desire to lick other men. When Chris is around, I pretty much just want to lick him.
