THE JANE DIARIES, ENTRY #9

October 19, 2014

3:34 pm: Having given the morning to the SVP poster, I want to add the last page of the Currie et al. (2003) characters to the Jane ms. I’m starting this with a worsening headache that feels like a cap of metal spreading under my calvarium; I’m resolved to tough it out.

4:02: I have to rest, I can’t focus on what I’m doing. Defeated by character 61.

6:13: Second try at it; I still feel like I have a new skull growing into my old skull.

6:42: Just got done with Currie et al. (2003)! Now, on to Holtz (2001) – 111 characters before I get to Carr (1999)!

6:57: Time to eat.

8:18: Done with dinner and rested, but I feel too awful to work; I brought MVL up to the bedroom in case I feel better later on.
