Hmmm!

Well, I am still in my pyjamas and DB has gone out to see if he can get us some tix to get to The South in the next couple of days. If he can't 'tis to site one for us!

I have been ill all day which is boring. Am just dandy in myself, is just my tummy :0( So, I read some papers and then wrote the introduction for my own! WOOT! I have not written a paper yet (yes, I know I am slow off the blocks, but am not a born academic. I like my dim, flickering bulb to be kept under a very thick bushel, thank you very much) but the articles seemed to sort of bring together my own thoughts (thanks Sup!) and ta da! I wrote a critique of how they fit into my work then realised that I sort of had all the ideas that form an interesting part of my work in my head for the first time (they don't usually convene together, or, if they do, cannot usually be described as 'interesting' to anyone outside my head) then wrote the abstract (100 words) and the intro (500 words). Obviously this is more of an outline than an intro. I shall check through later and tomorrow, then re write undoubtedly, then send to my sup and see what he thinks. And then I shall write it as I go along here, (when am ill, ug, all the time) or wait till I get home (Oh no! Tummy calls!)...

later...

... and write it then - but at least I have a) an idea of what to write about, b) am pretty chuffed about it, and c) have written it out so just need to flesh it out now.

hurray! I am quite excited about it!
