So, I'm other-home for a few days. Not long, since I need to go back to Sackville to do schoolwork and con stuff, but a few days. Of course, I brought schoolwork with me, but some of this requires school resources. The puppy seems to be quite happy I'm here though. :p

I also realized that none of the computers here can open the format my thesis is saved in. Oops. :p I guess I could write some stuff in Word and hope the formatting doesn't EXPLODE when I transfer to WordPerfect.

In exciting news, I bought a new mouse today. Of course, since it's for MY computer, I'm not sure how well it works yet. :p I also bought a birthday present for Vicki. Look how prepared ahead of time I am! :p

Now if only I could transfer that to my schoolwork. MY THESIS IS DUE IN LESS THAN A MONTH! We are now banned from the lab, so I spent yesterday cleaning out old samples. I went from four boxes to two. :p The golden rule of parents interacted nicely with the golden rule of chemistry. The chemistry one is "It doesn't matter what you're doing, be it running NMRs, putting on a reaction, filtering an isolation or just cleaning glassware, it will ALWAYS take longer than you think." Fortunately, the parent one is "They will ALWAYS be late for pick up/drop off", so I still got home before Sam's dad got there to drive us back to Riverview. ;p

Oh, and I found the migraine medication that had wandered off. :p

Yay for being almost done with your thesis. Or at least, it almost being due and therefore over. :P Do you use Word or Wordperfect? Because WP is usually better about opening Word files than Word is dealing with WP stuff. You can also save a file, in WP, in Word format, although if you have a lot of complex formatting it might still get a bit messy. :p

I use WordPerfect, that's the problem. I got to my parents' house and realized that the copy on my USB key is in WP format, and all the computers here have Word. :p
