tried to wing a research presentation on 3 hours of sleep and got eviscerated by my PI

i dont know why my frontal lobe did not activate at all this past week but i tried to present the project i've been working on this past year in a poster format without so much as looking at the poster i made two months ago. I couldn't even get myself to open the damn file let alone verbally practice presenting. i also stayed up until like 4am dreading it and had to go support my friend's thesis defense at 9am (priorities lmao). so i ended up running on less than 4 hours of sleep, and i knew it was already going to be bad because im basically lobotomized without sleep these days (recovering insomniac here).

and yeah. i forgot what the axes on my own graphs were, and it was pixelated so i couldnt read it on the spot. it was so bad my pi messaged me to apologize for being too harsh on me after. hjfkgdfghjkd gosh never again dude im so mad at myself
