Letting go

It's 9:30 PM which for me lately means it's about 30 minutes passed my bedtime. I think I came to a realization today. I have A LOT to do, and I can't wait any longer. Nor, can I do it all by myself. I have always been anti-volunteer. I just have a hard time letting other people near my data. But today I realized I just can't get it all done myself. I have decided to get a volunteer to help me. A keen, eagar, wants-to-help little undergrad who can do all the things I don't want to do. Someone who I can give all those tedious tasks to. There are two main things I am worried about getting done which the volunteer could help me with. I currently have a paid field assistant to help with the completion of my field work. That being said, Saturday marks the first day of fall, and I NEED to be done. I just don't have the time or patience to put up with field work anymore. That being said, I may need to spend a few hours out there cleaning up the cages and flags that lie everywhere around there. Also, my data entry and sample weighing. They can do that. Two excruciatingly TEDIOUS tasks that I just can't bother to do myself. I am meeting with a potential volunteer tomorrow, that a friend recommended to me, and I hope it goes well.
