1. Almost five days now without a cigarette. It seems to be getting a little easier with each passing day. Cravings are decreasing in frequency and intensity and the smell of cigarette smoke is becoming disagreeable. I am certainly not out of the proverbial woods yet, but seem to be well on my way to that objective.
2. Much research to do today at the preserve. On the agenda is the seasonal ecologcial assessment of the various plant/habitat community types including measurements of light intensity and canopy cover and microhabitat characterization. This takes a lot of time and I most likely won't be back home in Norfolk until very late this afternoon, or possibly early evening. I will also be conducting an additional experimental survey in collaboration with another graduate student, so that is going to add the duration of the site visit.
3. Will most likely make a roadtrip up to Charlottesville tomorrow to visit Monticello. Haven't been up there since the summer of 2004, so it's time once again to pay homage.
