I had to have today off as DB was working and so I was on Bean duty and hated it allll day, (well, I loved looking after my Bean but felt terrible about not working when Sup is waiting for results) but actually I feel better for being away from it for a bit. Got some perspective. I really hate the work now but hope that once the intro and concl are out of the way I will start to feel better about it...
I will work until 8pm then watch x factor in my jammies and eat mince pies. I am working quite a bit tomorrow which is ace.
I have had two 'comments' now, very recently, that have been utter shit and I have needed to delete them. I have never had this before, in all the years of writing this blog! I think it might be because it is quite big now. DB says it will get more negative comments as more people come across it and I have to agree. Am glad I am nearly finished if that is the case! (bit sad) I think I can turn the comments bit off but I like being open and to assume people are generally lovely - which they are as I have only ever had such wonderful support and kindness here thus far :).
It is so weird because no-one was really meant to read this blog, it was just a diary to help me focus and vent because, honestly, no-one around me wants to hear me whine about the PhD. If any poor bugger did read it I hoped my insecurities and openness would help other, isolated PhD peeps feel that they, at least, were coping better than me and if I can complete then bloody hell, they can too! :)
I didn't expect people to use to to try and sneak links to their own site or to come on and dole out unpleasant judgements for absolutely no reason. I can't bear the thought of being stressy about comments on here; it is a warm, friendly space to me. It's like a drunk storming into a cosy library where you are all peaceful and calm, sitting next to you and then spouting 'clever' shit with their stinky beer breath all over you. Just go away and do something else please!
