Lost

I am in qualitative analysis 2 this semester. A major part of the semester is learning how to analyze interview data. I've done three interviews- one with a grad student that lasted 35 minutes and then 2 with undergrads that lasted about 10 minutes each and are, subsequently on the same tape. All set, right?

Except that I lost the tape and tape recorder about a month ago. It is hard to transcribe then analyze missing data.

So I hunted for weeks and then found it this morning! Yea! It is not lost!

But Dave keeps getting old episodes of Lost from Netflix and I keep getting lost in those- I would not have done the transcribing even if I had the tapes.

So perhaps I have lost my ability to complete coursework...
