A sign

Is it time to leave work when you are still long enough for the automatic lights to shut off?

And come to think of it...who unplugged my fan?

And shut the windows?

hmmm? Weird day.

Anyways, I'm taking the automatic lights as a sign. If you are staring at something long enough for the lights to think you don't exist, it's time to move on. I think it's time to accept the reality that this manuscript will not get submitted before I leave for vacation. I'm still waiting to hear from other people on things, and the staring indicates to me that I really can't do it myself, no matter how hard I try. It's very hard to use data you didn't collect. Or, to use it well that is. I could very easily just plug in some numbers and output some others, but the numbers don't really make sense, and not being there puts me at a disadvantage in the interpretation process. Time to move on I suppose...
