grading tests is good for something

amazing revelation - they always seem so at the time.

bloodflow takes a while to catch up with thought. i do the same thing over & over for 5 minutes, and im in the groove.

fMRI tells me so.

same thing for an hour and im toast. i reckon it's some combination of glucose supply and metabolic waste. ah, the likitations of the flesh.

fieldwork

Woke up at 6 am - the earliest in 6 months maybe? Spent the day in the field picking up all those aging, half-broken groundwater loggers and bringing them home for good. No more Bosque del Apache, which is kinda sad. No more Lemitar, which is really nice. No more Southern NM mosquitos! Workday in the sun makes boy happy.
