batskeetsOh my freakin' GOD I hurt all kinds of bad! The psych experiment I just did was worse than I thought. They put this weird pseudo-helmet on your head, and it has little infrared cameras on it that track the movement of your eyes. THEN they put you in an un-lit room with a black screen, black walls, black ceiling, etc, so it's all creepy and near-impossible to tell where you are in relation to the rest of the room.
Between the incessant eye-focusing and the pressure of the helmet, I now have a rip-roaring headache and eyeache. Both are fading, but it still sucked. :p One of the experimenters told me afterwards that when he tried it, he couldn't even get through all the trials in one sitting. Jeebus, people. :p The good news is, I got 2 credit slips out of it. Go me. ;p
I'm in a writing mood. I'm not sure what to write about though. Well, okay, so I'm in a *creative* writing mood. I'm not at all in the mood to write the paper I have to write later.
I have another study in an hour or so. Jeesh. :p Then I may come back to work again, or I might just go home and start on my paper.
