In the lab, working on the thesis. I'm still at about 40 pages, and while there are still some graphs to be added, I'm reaching the point where I just need to write a whole bunch more. (60 pages is a decent target.) Unfortunately I tend to be very terse when it comes to technical writing, so it will be more of less of a struggle from here on out. Maybe I'll put together an explanatory diagram for the introduction.

Spent a lot of the day watching the health care coverage on C-SPAN. I can't believe it has actually passed the House! Watching the Clinton attempt fail was one of the first things I really paid attention to, politically. Even with all the flaws, just getting this far is amazing. It just needs to be good enough that no one will be able to get rid of it. I don't mind incremental improvements at that point.

I'm also very terse, and I think it's a good thing.
When I need more pages, I try to say the same thing from a different perspective, or give examples, or go on theoretical tangents and speculations.
