springen

I jumped up and down the halls today ("do you have spanish or italian blood?" the Executive Assistant asks-- "egyptian blood, same thing" I reply, laughing). We (my chief mentor and I) just sent emails to every study author of our analysis requesting more specific information. Here I am thinking... ages and ages until they respond... Within 2 minutes our first responder sent her willingness to help! woohoo!!!! and we just got responder #2! Now, if only it doesn't take too long for all to gather the information we requested (God bless them for doing so--it's not difficult, but some of the studies are even from 1994 and in other countries or previous jobs...).

so i was springen. :)
