it is finished

and submitted to the committee with only three days to spare before the start of my field season. i can't believe i haven't been fired from grad school for being so tardy with my proposal!

is it finished well? not really. is it passable? i hope so.

man, grad school is a nightmare. every day i want to quit. i hope it gets better.

right now i'm trying to figure out how to pick up a ton (literally) of soybean meal from the coop, and where on earth i'm going to store it so that it doesn't rot.

the soybean meal is going to (hopefully) attract catfish to my nets (all 96 of them!!).
