#I should probably make another HEY YOU TOO CAN VIRTUALLY WATCH ALL THE SICB TALKS FOR LIKE $40 post to promote SICB+

[grison-in-space]

in theory I should be prepping for SICB right now and working on my talk but in PRACTICE I am, in order:

-procrastinating by doing some big analyses in the hopes of pulling some kind of conclusion to the story I'm telling in my main current project out of my ass

-watching Matilda bop around the living room and oscillate between harassing Benton for love and/or chomping and looking for Crimes

-trying not to get too sucked into trolling Google Scholar for more information about terrestrial forest crabs

-rubbing Benton's belly as he huddles under my warm blankie and considers engaging the puppy menace

#chatter #may delete later idk #I should probably make another HEY YOU TOO CAN VIRTUALLY WATCH ALL THE SICB TALKS FOR LIKE $40 post to promote SICB+ #because fuck do I love that meeting #but right now I'm trying to fight off my insecurity about my current work being less obviously eco/evo oriented than my PhD work #not that those ideas aren't clearly informing my approaches #but well #it's neuroscience #technically if you squint #and I don't yet know how I want to tell the story of my career and where precisely I want to stand as a researcher between disciplines #plus it's my old PhD stomping grounds and I cannot underscore enough how little I feel like dealing with my ex-advisor
