Day Thirty-Three: Presentation Preparation Complete...

It is regrettable that I was unable to notify the reader of my progress again yesterday, but I feel assured in saying that my activities were, while of great extent, not particularly noteworthy being as it is that the presentation preparation has occupied the majority of the time for the past week. What I do deem notable is the fact that, after two showings to Tina where numerous changes were suggested, the presentation is, I believe, with only a few changes from the original state, in its final form. I do not foresee any further suggestions altering the form of my presentation any further ( if the reader will understand my point) ...

With Tina having arranged for some members of the Ultrasound Laboratory to come this afternoon to serve as the audience for the first "dry run" of my presentation, I feel I ought to devote time that I would otherwise use to embellish this entry to run though the presentation in my head; however, I will not sacrifice the ex tempore and subsequently natural style of oratory that I am so noted for and acclaimed for in school by my peers and teachers for the sake of others ambitions, I will assure you...

The reader might also find solace in the fact that what I will call the "notebook-confiscation" controversy (although this language may misrepresent the dilemma as a conflict with much greater import) has been concluded in a compromise; it seems that Tina will be placated with printed scans of the pages of the notebook that I have kept, which I created this morning. I am still of the opinion that my disjunct and momentary scribblings will not be of any value to someone who does not write by the hand that composed these pages, but I am nevertheless willing to, as I have said, satisfy these ostensible conditions of my employment if need be for the sake of science...

I will again inform the reader of the shear futility of hanging a fifteen-year-old map on the wall of a room in a scientific institution such as this...

I will apologize for my haste, but I have always intended to tell you that the "Classical Piece of the Day" is...
George Gershwin's Porgy and Bess
Suuummmerrrtiiimmmme (is aalmostt ooooo-verrr)...

Good Day,
