Today I wrote 600 words, about half of which was introduction. (I always try not to write the introduction first, but I just can't get going without it. Invariably I throw it out and write a new one when the rest of the essay is finished.) I got as far as the start of the narrative section, but then I needed Kelsey for some hard data, and because it's heavy I'm not carrying it around with me. The plan was to write the whole Kelsey section tonight, but that got hijacked by a tension headache making it difficult to read.
The last MATH assignment is in, meaning the only non-essay thing left on the list is one more journal article. I've chosen another short one so it shouldn't be too difficult to get that done.
