My poster is starting to look like an actual poster instead of just a few text boxes on a big empty white sheet. Huzzah!
In order for it to start looking like a poster, though, I ended up spending three and a half hours making graphs and resizing pictures to fit neatly. I got home around 4:30 (after leaving at 7:30 this morning) with a massive eye-strain headache that two Aspirin didn't even put a dent in, only to leave again 15 minutes later because Walmart had told me my order had arrived and was ready for pick up (I have been in the mood for B-rated natural disaster movies for months; thanks to a $25 Walmart gift card, now I have Volcano, Category 6: Days of Destruction, and Day After Tomorrow; granted, only one of those is technically B-rated, but yay for more disaster movies!). Picked up some take-home Chinese on the way back since it was along the way, and after I got home I turn out all the lights in and around my room except for my sparkly glitter 'lava' lamp that gives just enough light to see clearly, turn on the audio copy of Journey to the Interior of the Earth I have on my computer, and then cover my eyes and crash for two and a half hours. My eyes were incredibly grateful for the reprieve, and 10 chapters from where I began the headache was mostly gone and I was able to feed my internet addiction.
And... thats about all, really. Now the question is to continue to do the internet thing, or to not tempt fate and do something non eye-strainy until I turn in in another hour or so. Choices choices.
ow,
headache,
conference,
audio books,
yay,
poster
