Day 7: This is SOOO annoying!

I hate doing transcriptions! HATE IT HATE IT HATE IT!!!!!

ACK!!!!!

Grr...

My goal today is to transcribe Laura's interview. That will probably end up taking me the entire day.

If I'm going on a 1:3 ratio in terms of transcriptions, I could, theoretically, do two today. But they're so incredibly soul suckingly draining that I just need to take frequent breaks.

In terms of work, here's what I still have to do before I can even start the analysis!

- Laura - 3 hours - 9 hours of transcription (HOLY JEEBUS!)
- Mary - 53 minutes - 3 hours of transcription
- Zima - 2 hours - 6 hours
- Nisa - 1 hour- 3 hours

Crap. So, between all of them, I have 22 hours of transcriptions. If I work 10 hours today, and 10 hours tomorrow, I should finish them before I take off for break on Thursday. Well, now that's a goal to aspire to.

I'm going to try the voice recognition again, and see if that makes any difference. I really do hope it does. Because this is a royal pain in the neck.
