Friday even'!

Ahhh it's Friday evening. Am not finishing yet though! I have worked hard today again. This Wednesday deadline plan and my lego-game bribe are working their magic! I have realised that this section is going to take longer than I thought - there is so much information to include so I can analyse it all later. It is boring, time-consuming work. I will carry on until 6.30 whereupon I shall leave for the day. So I want to get this done as much as possible! I am about half way through which sounds bad but the last bits should be quicker. I hope to work for about 4 hours tomorrow and should have this done then - and then I can go a play my new computer game! Yay!

I have got my spaced box set to watch too, and have got Saw to watch! I have seen half of Saw about twice, and each time thought it just gets silly. However, people look at me in shock when they hear this confession and have told me I should carry on watching it. So I shall!

I have a six mile run to do tomorrow! Eek!

Better go and finish my work. Also heard from my Sup who will read my intro (which I have changed again but the ideas are the same) tonight in the pub over a half of ale.

Are having a take-away tonight. I think Indian or Thai. I am getting seeing as I am a jammy bug*er with the old ESRC monies. I could never do this PhD if I wasn't funded. In fact I wouldn;t do it. I would have tried but not got very far. I have sooooo much respect for people who do unfunded PhDs - their commitment and motivation and sheer blo*dy mindedness to complete! My experience would be so different without the funding. I suppose that's why I make myself sit here day-in, day-out trying to work. If I was unfunded I would definitely feel that my time was more mine. I am beholden to my funding for sure.

Not complaining though.

Have lovely weekends! (don't know why I am saying that as I am bound to post again tomorrow)
