Pop Quiz
Q: How long does it take one girl to correct/completely redo an amazingly shoddy transcription of an hour and a half long round table with eight panelists and two moderators? Keep in mind that it must be done by hand because you have to reserve an entire conference room to use a TV/VCR and desktop computers aren't very portable.

A: 18 hours transcribing (including 6 hours of my weekend), 7 hours typing. That translates into 26 single-spaced pages.

I have lost my will to live.

On a cheerier note
The weather here is finally lovely. To celebrate, over the weekend I went to the Brooklyn Museum and Coney Island (mmm ... hot dogs and skee ball). One day I really do need to go back and ride the Cyclone. I do love me some roller coasters.

Things that made me happy
-sappy mass-market fiction set in Ireland
-direct deposti tax refunds
-chocolate-vanilla twist cones
