how is it that people are incapable of figuring out how old their journal is? the date created is right on your userinfo, it's really not that hard to figure out. it's bad enough when people just can't remember correctly (despite the fact that the info's right there, they don't have to depend on memory) but what really pisses me off is when people deliberately give me the wrong answer. for example, brad's original journal is 45 months old. there are probably no more than 30 people with journals over 35 months old. so when someone tries to be funny and puts down 42, or 71, or 110... it's really not funny. one was from tj, too, and it makes me want to hit him for not only not taking academics seriously, but for fucking it up for someone who *is* trying to take it seriously. fuckers.

..okay, so maybe there are more like 2000 users who are older than 35 months. but still, overall percentage of the lj population and how many of those accounts would still be active, blah blah blah. feh.

it's weird, i just graphed age of journals and it's coming out in 4 groups - centered around 3 months, 13 months, 23 months, and 33 months, with the 23 month group being slightly wider and taller than the other three. there really are peaks at exactly 10 months apart, though.

god, coding the rest of this is going to be such a bitch. i'm going to start by only coding the text entries, that way if i don't need a lot of info about the other variables, they've already been graphed by lj.

i was going to go to sleep half an hour ago. i'm hungry. damn kieth got me craving thai food.

i swear i wrote this somewhere but i don't see it so i guess i didn't.... i slept through fencing. was going to lie down for about 20 minutes, asked david to stop by and make sure i was conscious when it was fencing time, set my alarm.... and woke up at 4.10. i guess i turned the alarm off in my sleep and david got distracted, i don't know. kinda cranky about it, since i haven't had a sunday practice in a while and there are several people who can't come to wednesday practices. also my sleep schedule is completely backwards.
