I just wasted a whole evening reading up on SPE so I can improve the method "he" created. It's wasted because Chromatography homework is sitting here undone and I still have a billion pages of NMR to attempt vague understanding and a newly assigned chapter on photosensitizers(S -> T, something very interesting btw). Not to mention my thesis proposal, which hasn't been started, and my M2 structure determination / affinity capillary electrophoresis of glycans and proteomics presentations/papers still undone.

Overwhelmed much? Ask me April 5th, when it is all over.
