The Valley of the Shadow of Death (Also Known as the Library)

I walked into work yesterday and my boss said, "What are you doing here? Do you see how nice it is outside? You're only young once--go outside and play." As it turns out, I'm very good at taking orders from superiors.

Unfortunately, playing outside must now defer to Sub & Cite hell (which explains why I am 1) awake, and 2) at school this early on a Saturday). My partner and I are working today until we get through at least 100 footnotes (of the 250 in the article). To give you an idea of how long that might take, we worked for 7 hours on Thursday and got through 28. Let's hope things pick up a little.

For some more insight into what exactly a Sub & Cite entails (dear God, why?), please see the following diatribes about my experience last semester:

Psychological Study: The Effects of a Sub & Cite on a Previously Normal Girl
Library Angst
Library Angst Part II

I was a little angry then. I've since been beaten into submission.
