Multitasking

Back @ the department in home U where I did my PhD. I have three days of work while the Goose is with her dad and I have to do "everything" during these three days. "Everything" includes catching up with "everyone" since I see them only thrice a year, install stats software that I pay lisence for (usually takes at least two hours and I'm already late), submitting a conference abstract (maybe), planning my next tour d'Europe in June, finish a manuscipt, analyse my current data and have results ready for a meeting in two weeks, and plan future work with old colleagues. So far I have got to the first part. I have chatted with nearly everyone I wanted to chat with. And a few additional ones that I did not necessarily want to chat with. And I have started the stats package installation process by getting the eight necessary CDs and asking the ITadministrator to send me the licence file. Still waiting for the licence file. Meanwhile I try to read a manuscript from Dr B in Bergen, it's all modelling and I don't understand sh**. OK, here's the e-mail with the installation file. No more excuses to procrastinate. Wish me luck.

Update: The installation only took half an hour (after twenty minutes of trouble-shooting regarding the correct licence file....), so I even have some time over before the next event (see below)

Nice thing happening tonight: single malt tasting with the ladies only whisky club. Rumours say it will be Longrow 10 yo (Campelltown), Linkwood sherry wood (Speyside) och Glenlossie 13 yo (Speyside). Sounds good
