This may be a problem

I have discovered that I'm quite abysmal at reviewing articles. I have no idea what to say and I am half one and a half paragraphs from finishing my assignment and I have no idea what to say.

The parts that I've already done felt like pulling teeth. By the time I found myself using terms such as "admirably methodological" parts of my brain wanted to die. Namely the part that, after all this time, has finally decided that hey, maybe writing can be fun. Not to mention that increasing the number of articles I have to read per week means that I'm increasing my exposure to available literature which, in turn, means that I get to encounter more of the badly written ones as well as the good. Right now I am seriously considering if it'll be possible for me to write all my future reports in bullet points which, of course, no respectable scientific journal would ever accept but since only the PI's going to be reading my current work anyway...

...he probably would still tell me to put it in a report format for possible future chances where things might get published. (Current chances of that happening fails the p-value cut off.) Darn it.

Still in the 80s. SD weather bizarre. Want iced tea.
