Melbourne

Hectic meeting done... I was told just as the meeting started that it was going to be cut from 2 hours down to 1 because my supervisor needed to meet another student. Given how little of an f I've been giving about this project, I can't be too mad that he's prioritising people with actual research, but it still stings a bit to be reminded how low on the totem pole I am when most of this research experience has been an opportunity for my brain to ramp up the usual "you are not as smart as you thought you were lol" messaging. That's on me though heh.

Anyway, I get a second opportunity to chat to him tomorrow which is probably better given that I wrote all that stuff yesterday but didn't create the main figures that we'd actually need to focus on... (and which I can create today).

After all this is done I'm tempted to go volunteer in a plant nursery and tune out the world for a good month...

e: current distraction is following the votes in Goldstein. Tim Wilson's lead is narrowing! From 500-something down to 300 in a few days. Maybe those postal votes aren't as easy to predict as before. Still don't think Zoe will win but it won't be a decisive victory for Tim either.

Also following that super thin margin in Bradfield (NSW).
