That garbled, high sound is just me realizing that the human body is not meant to ack and squee at the same time.
The Teeth are toast. I haven't actually slept or eaten in the last... well, it's been a while, so my joy is coming off more Eeyore-ish than I intend, but under the exhaustion is a happy glow.
More later on the insanity that preceded the hand off - including my advisor walking in to find me in the lab this morning, which precipitated this exchange:
"Tell me you didn't sleep here."
"Okay. I didn't sleep."
*sigh and headshake* "How did I know that was coming?"
- but for now... I intend to go make myself smell like mint and then bask in bedding until the weekly Numb3rs session calls. I reserve the right to pass out cold on M.'s floor, however.
Oh, and because I'm still reeling: My boys.

I am somewhat disappointed there was no homocidal rampage though. :P

Date: 2006-05-06 11:51 pm (UTC)On Tuesday, my geography professor and I had an entire conversation in which it was decided that I could turn in my article review this coming Tuesday, and that time restrictions would mean I wouldn't be presenting it at all. So imagine my surprise on Thursday when he looks up in the middle of class and announces I'm next to present.
Yeah.
I'd read the damned article itself at 6 that morning, before crashing for two hours. Suffice it to say, I'm fairly certain there are at least 20 people who now think I have the public speaking skills and intellect of a rodent on LSD. Not my finest hour. I went into Karen's office afterward to say, very solemnly, "I want bonus points from the universe for not commiting a bitchslap."
But - AM DONE!
