Expired ID cards

Another sign I should have graduated already. My ID card expired yesterday. I discovered this when trying to get into my office today, and the reader wouldn't recognize me, so I had to call the CPs so I could get let in. Very embarrassing. And now I can't leave until I finish as much of the stuff that I need access to my office to do as possible, since I won't be able to get back in until Monday (if then). While I do have water and snacks here, the bathroom is on the other side of two keycard doors (both of which complain when propped open, and I don't want to CPs called back here), so that may be the limiting factor...

Fudge. I was just posting an entry of "yay I'm done! I hope there aren't any bugs or errors in what I did!" and realized that in fact, there was a default parameter I needed to change for this set of runs, so I have at least another hour here. Sigh. At least I can play my music as loud as I want since there isn't anyone else here. And I have a cookie drawer full of tastiness.

Okay. I will tentatively declare myself done again. This change had better satisfy Mr. Reviewer Number 1 and his complaints. I also think that I may ask to be shifted closer to the front of the coauthor list on this paper for going beyond the call of duty.

I'm actually pretty happy right now. My mood definitely correlates with my productivity. And improving papers is more fun to work on than thesis writing...
