In which we do not hail the conquering hero, but at least admit maybe she won't be maimed after all

Bossmeeting went okay-ish.

I have a list as long as my arm of experiments to do to keep all my projects on track, and I did talk about some of what was bothering me, in terms of feeling inadequate and unprepared all the time, and the steps I am taking to combat that. He had some suggestions, too, so that was okay.

I have to get my oral presentation ready for Friday, however, because he wants me to practice in front of the group at group meeting. Yay. I mean, it will be helpful, but. God, I'm going to look stupid. Just like I did with my last presentation. That ended up going really well, though, so. I shall take what I can get.

Most of the body slides are okay, just need a couple tweaks. Mostly it's the background and future work that I have to elaborate on, plus fix up one or two of my illustrations because they are misleading. So, aside from the background pumping up, and the practicing, it's doable.

Let's not talk about all the background reading I still need to re-go-over a final time to make me feel much more comfortable. Heh. Hopefully though, the presentation will be done done finished forever by early next week (aside from lingering fiddling and corrections) which will give me an entire week to devote to nothing but the questions thing.

So aside from going OMG OMG OMG and wanting to cry, just because bossmeetings always make me weepy (because, I suspect, they are never as bad as I assume they will be), I think I can cautiously say I will probably be reasonably all right.

Oh, also I have to reserve a room. Damn. *adds that to list*

Good times!

I <3 you all, though, because you are being so supportive. It's nice. Really. *HUGS ABOUT*
