Hello, folks.

I feel like this blog is my confessional space. Well, forgive me, but I have procrastinated! I still need to finish up transcribing my first interview. Oy. But the fiction of time that comes with spring break has me feeling all right. I will finish it tonight if it's the last thing I do!

I was out of town this weekend (from Thursday afternoon until Saturday afternoon- a collegiate eternity!). I was preparing some ecology research for a poster so I had no time to devote to observations last week. Regardless of this, I am confident that I will have time during spring break. I will be in town, with a car, and itching to leave my home premises. So, I hope to finish up my interviews (and transcriptions!) in the comfort of spring break. I will continue to observe at least weekly for as long as I can, and I plan to head in to volunteer for one or two full days, if possible, this break.

As for interviews, I have made contact via email with the doctor and with a medical assistant. As stated earlier, I intend to finish those over spring break. I very much look forward to them, actually (just not the transcription process).

IRB revisions still plague me. I sent it in again and was asked to review some more things. I will probably ask for help from yall before I send in my next version tomorrow afternoon.

Peace.

  1. I'm glad we're getting the IRB reps to come in tomorrow - it's unfortunate that it's been such a crazy process for so many...and hurray for catching up during spring break
    I hope your future interviews go well!
