1: not murder Ryan's cat. I think this is pretty generous really!

Okay really though.

I need to:
Mail copies of my records to the Bahamas. All ready, now that I have jackets for the cds, and just needs to be sent. Hopefully this afternoon. Or not. Stupid Columbus day.
Mail a copy of my thesis to DF. See above :V
Burn a cd with all my info for the INA people to print out. Which I can do now I think! Oooh look at me get distracted before I even finish my list >_<
Write a researcher profile and submit a picture for the INA website (easy, I hope).
Write a short (1000 word) summary of this summer's work for the INA website. - and picked out pics! Heh.
Write a report that can serve for the INA quarterly and possibly also as my report for the AMMC. I need to double check when I owe them that. - Phew - six months!

Seek and write grant applications (Wenner Gren? Where else?)

Work on 205 lectures. World systems whee!

At some point I need to write up a Dissertation proposal, hmm. I suppose my report could serve that purpose as well?

I dug holes this morning.

I also watched a parade of some ladies who are purported by some (Donald Trump?) to be the most beautiful women in the world universe.

Now, I am sitting in a beautiful cottage on a gorgeous and remote tropical island, lounging in my underwear.

In a little while, I am going to go to one of the most beautiful natural beaches in the world, to swim and nap on the beach before I come back for an afternoon/evening of paperwork, hanging out with two other really cool ladies who are also hanging around in their underwear at the moment.

There will be more beautiful women at the beach, flouncing around in bikinis in turquoise water bounded by soft pink sands...

Wish you were here?

P.S. - we watched Star trek *and* Star Wars last night (A New Hope). Life is grand.

I have sacrificed an earring to the couch. I'm not sure what this will get me, though. I liked that earring.

I am contemplating buying a camera. Possibly I can convince INA to buy a camera, and use it. but then it would be INA's camera. But cameras are expensive. Hrm. I want a cannon. I want a camera I don't have to keep closed with duct tape. And also a camera whose battery charger may be somewhere between here and Wales, but also may not be. My current camera is none of these things.

I have realized that with the base map I am using for my GPS, it is going to think I am in the water when I am at Harbour Island. This could be confusing.

I....am sleepy. Excite. I want a nap and to do nothing but write tonight, but I don't expect things will play out that way. well, maybe the nap.

I have forms. So many forms. I have them in binders. I need to put my office supplies purchases in to my budget. Organization, I can has it. but first.... a nap.

Screens: I can get everything locally except the hardware cloth.
all other field equipment I can get locally - shovels, etc

Tools:
I need a staple gun, and possibly a drill, as well as some other typical tools - screwdrivers, hammer, etc. Some of those things I can get locally, but again, i may as well see what I can get in.
I want to get at least one set of root clippers
Survey flags
twine
Camera

Recording:
I need artifact bags. I can get basic supplies there, but I may see about bringing some with. I have no idea what all I will wind up needing, in terms of amounts and sizing. gah! Also, heavy.

I need some books for fieldjournals, with graph paper. I should have begged a few from Dr. Water, but I will manage.

box of pencils, box of sharpies, big and small.

I've been posting a few little snippets (mostly drabbles) inspired by the new Star trek movie over at my writing lj, [livejournal.com profile] measured_words, if you're not already reading it but might be interested.

I'm sure you'll all be shocked to hear they are mostly Romulan-centric ;p

In other news.... I sent off the permits yesterday. Now all I need to do is get ready for Buttermilk! Yeep!
