business
i have just realised something. i wanted the title for this entry to say how busy i have been lately, but busy-ness is business. that must be where that word comes from.
so anyway, this week has been full with a scan day, a couple of seminars and today i did a lecture for a group of msc students on the design and interpretation of fmri studies. i think i got everything across to them okay. oh, and i found this website today which shows what happens when you take metallic objects near an mri scanner. i have had all the safety stuff drilled in to me, especially when i was practically rugby tackled at the door of the scanner room when i was carrying a pair of scissors. still it’s impressive to see what can happen.
had a really horrible dream all about needles last night. the whole world had to be vaccinated against something icky, but i spent all night running away from the nurses with the needles. haven’t had an injection now since i was 15. i do wonder how i will be when i have to have one again.
we have been collecting together all our stuff for a big car boot sale we’re going to have to raise money for the wedding fund. last weekend we packed up lots of stuff from birmingham home. dad seemed quite upset to see me take all my childhood things out of my room. mum was glad for the extra space though. i even brought back my life size cardboard cutout of captain picard. i’m going to set him up next to our stall with a sign around his neck saying “carl and susie’s car boot”. he can be our marketing man.
this weekend we are going to wrexham. hopefully it will be a relaxing weekend with lots of sleep because i can’t remember the last one of those we had.
thank crunchie it’s friday tomorrow.
