Work update

I just finished my 3rd draft of a report for my advisor that I've been plugging away at for 6 months. (No, not all that 6 months has been spent writing. Some of it was also spent doing the research I'm writing about and fighting with the computer. And making graphs.) It is currently 46 pages long. Half of this is graphs. At least.

Suddenly, I see how people can write dissertations as long as novels.

(Because I was curious, I pasted it in a word counter. It's currently running at only 7,600 words. Darn -- that's about 30 1/2 pages of text. So that means I have 15 1/2 pages of figures.)

I still have three more data sets similar to the one my report is about. ::trudges on::
