Work is hard this week and last week. We are preparing for the Annual Meeting and things are getting busy. I spent all day learning Corel...which I think is better than illustrator/photoshop, but I don't really know. I am having a real issue getting the graphics to remain clear and not pixallated. Pixallated is a word I don't know how to spell and neither does word. :/ Failings of modern society really.
Soon (as in directly after posting this) I will be working on making figures pretty for a paper Calvin is having me help write to be published in a peer-reviewed journal. The paper is on part of my Thesis Research, the sphene part. And really, the coolest and most interesting part. Basically, I am showing at what temps sphene forms in a cooling magma body underground and which Rare Elements it sucks up so that other minerals can't use them. In the future geologists can use this data and findings to estimate magma temps and composition just based on the presence of sphene or not. I promise you it's awesome.
Another good thing is that Josh found all my thesis research on his thumb drive the other day! I didn't really know where it was, and this way I didn't have to look for it. Poor Josh was unable to use his thumb drive though.
Ackbar Fun Fact: While Josh is sleeping, Ackbar will clean him. While I am sleeping, Ackbar will nibble on all of my exposed bits (toes, elbow, calf, etc.) No cleaning for me!
