I am totally and completely obsessed with my statistics. My little excel spreadsheet has evolved… it now has a graph of my past cycles (not a temp chart, but a bar graph showing each cycle’s menses, ovulation and LP); a statistics page calculating averages and mins and maxes of all my data; an intercourse timing chart showing how well we’ve timed each cycle; and, my favorite, a predictions chart that shows for each cycle what my projected due date would have been and the “predicted” gender going off a chinese gender chart (just for fun, because I like to bug Den about it). And almost all of it is controled from one page where I just input each cycle’s numbers. It’s so much fun, I tell you. Much fun. I should post some screenshots.<\/p>\n
Although I must say I am considering writing a whole PHP program\/database to do all the same things. Excel is great, I love it, but it’s having some limitations regarding a calendar and highlighting function that is making me annoyed.<\/p>\n
I don’t know why I like all this stuff. But I know that it makes me feel so satisfied to be tweaking numbers and formulas and code. It makes me feel content. I’m now looking for what more I can do with it all.<\/p>\n
(However I am feeling rather annoyed at the moment that my laptop is out of commission, because right now I would be in bed working on said PHP database. I just don’t like sitting here right now, it’s too cold and uncomfortable. I want to be in bed with my laptop, damnit. At least the replacement part has already shipped so I should get it monday or tuesday. Because I am grumpy without my laptop.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
