MEMEHUNTER

oh, the humanity

2006 and time to start posting regularly again. I think.

Sorry about the pause. All sorts of things were happening. Most irritating of all; my Powerbook was (and is still) knackered. It works most of the time (like now, for example) but every so often demands to be restarted and / or simply will not start up. Also it is running slowly and the Superdrive is knackered.

Who rues the decision not to get Applecare?
I do.

And THEN it was Christmas. Wooo. A gentle one this year, with just me and me mutha. Which is all fine by me because the vast majority of my family is nuts. I mean whooop-ting-mental. Anyway, got some classy shirts from me mum, which was nice. I've decided I want to overhaul my wardrobe. Bring it kicking and screaming in to line with the kind of person I consider myself to be. I mean, really. All the shapeless tshirts simply have to go. This is why I am wearing a shirt and cufflinks to work. I wish to engender an element of class about my life.

New Year came and went in a fug of alcohol induced euphoria, karaoke and tube strikes. People tell me I enjoyed myself.

And now I'm back here. Drinking coffee, chatting to my labmates, looking at the business cards I had printed and thinking about how to avoid work today.

All the undergraduates in my life are panicking about some exams at the moment. I feel sorry for them. At the same time, however, I confess myself extremely glad that my exam taking days seem to be properly over. I've been holding back on saying that because the last few times I've said "hoorah, no more exams!" I have promptly been visited with an exam. This time, though, I think I'm clear. Much joy therefore, but sympathy for the exam-encumbered.

Somehow have to remember how to do a PhD. My supervisor wants me to put together a questionnaire-website to ask people the questions that were omitted from the latest round of data gathering because he said they made the process too long. Sigh.

I have a sneaking suspicion I'm going to be on telly this week.

How peculiar.

More posts will follow.
