Pretty tired today. I think I'll only manage to do course setup stuff.

Did a decent bit of that. Also had a short nap.

More syllabizing and course setup today. Maybe I can get it all pretty much done?

All but the bonus course are fully done and set up. Whew!

Travelling, so probably nothing today.

I accepted a guest review invite for a journal I just got off the editorial board of recently. I have 30 days so it should be doable soon.

Today I did some journal editor tasks, but otherwise I am starting to get into this "saying no to new projects" goal!

Parasaurolophus

I'll start the referee report today. More would be good, but I'm not sure I'll have the time.

Didn't quite, because the day got filled. But I did write 600 words and finish everything save the introductory summary. I'll finish it tomorrow and count it as an August accomplishment.

Report:

Quote from: Parasaurolophus on August 01, 2024, 03:50:33 PMFor my part, the August goals are tempered by the need to deal with the housing crap, but still:

  • Write up most of a book chapter
  • 1 referee report
  • Comment on friendly acquaintance's redrafted paper
  • Start reading for a book review due in Oct. or Nov. (can't recall which)


I didn't start reading for that, but I did work on several book chapters in addition to drafting up more or less an entire one, and I started translating for T5, too. And I refereed a second article (maybe even a third? I don't recall).

I know it's a genus.

I just read the manuscript and will hopefully type up my feedback tomorrow.
