Holy sweaty shirtballs. I am COOKED, was out from 11 to 6 jumping in and out of the car but I got the time sensitive stuff done, and I pushed on through to correct ALL the other measurements in one day to make the most of cruisey traffic... and I'M DONE WITH MY DATA COLLECTION!!1!1! (for that side of town, anyway. Got one more area that I might have to let go of if the weather doesn't play nice this weekend/next week)
I'll be glad to not drive over the effing Westgate for another year now, thank you very much.
Bonus is I managed to get some cheap Asian veggies while stopping for refreshments (kang kung, choy sum, winter gourd and very cheap small round eggplants). Plus a full tank of cheap petrol. Ordered pizza for dinner as a very well-deserved treat... just waiting for the clothes to wash and I'll pick it up while I do the laundromat run. Whew, what a day.
Yay. πβΊοΈ
