My Brain is Melting

Dude, statistics SUX!

I was really, really excited to take a statistics class 1) because I was tired of having to deal with nebulous theories of why coporations and the people in them are messed up, 2)because there was never a right answer, its was all interpretive and 3) I like reading case studies.

Sadly, I got to chapter 7 in my book -- the chapter that introduces formulas for finding out silly things like what's the lowest IQ you need to have to get into Mensa -- and I totaly just fell apart. Or, more accurately, my brain was riding along nicely and then someone pulled the parking break and the transmission fell out.

HAHAHAHA! I have no idea what is going on. It makes me laugh tho, because I really, really want to understand and to get this, but I am just lacking something in my thought process that allows me to understand math. It's so difficult that I can't even comprehend it. Some of you may be scoffing, I'm sure, but let's just say...the last algebra/math class I took was freshman year of highschool. I went to two classes and realized I was fucked and then skipped the rest of the year.

Last night was infinitely harder for me to focus because for the last few days I have had a mild headache. I might even go as far to say that its a "lack of" caffeine headache, which has me perplexed. I don't drink caffeinated coffee and I have been able to get my diet coke consumption down miraculously low. Like one a week. Though, in the last 3-5 days I have had one a day. Can I be addicted ALREADY!?!? What was also interesting is, as soon as I ate something the headache subsided. Consequently, I chowed down all. day. long. And then it came right back.

Biggest Mistake Ever: Buying a 3lb bag of peanut M&M's at Costco. WHAT? was I thinking?!?

By then end of class my brain was melting and my eyeballs were ready to fall out.

Did I mention I was training?
