The X-ray School August 18, 2005
Posted by spacemom in : Life...otherwise , trackbackBack to school time girls and boys!
So I foolishly signed up for the X-ray School. I really don’t know how
to process X-ray data, so here I am. My insecurities are taking over
again. Most of the people here are either graduate students or young
PhDs (on their first post docs). I often feel like I am the stupid one
who isn’t going to be Dr. W… Sigh. But in truth, most of the people
here are very much like me. Nobody truly understands what they are
doing. We are all wading through this.
I have decided to skip the lectures today. I have a massive headache
and collapsed in bed as soon as we got home last night. I am debating
between a cold or my allergies going hay wire. I think it may be the
latter as the pollen counts are INSANE lately.
Anyway, I feel torn now between doing my “real” work or doing work for
the x-ray school. To be honest, they are the same… I get paid for
doing some research. And I get paid for the instrument operations. And
going to the school will help me in my work. But I feel like I am
leaving my work behind.
I still haven’t called Crazy H to hand her the clue by 4. I really
need to, but I think she is out on Thursday nights.. Oh well.
So how do you get to be sick when you have kids? Anyone? Anyone?
