Getting Sloppy

Looking at my articles, I have just realised that I have not posted here for almost two weeks, which is terrible.

Part of this is having a lack of anything profound to say. Over the summer, I have less time to kill, as I do not teach in DIT, instead spending my days developing software or finishing my PhD.

The inevitable consequence of this is a much higher motivation requirement to write an article. I have been very busy over the last few weeks trying to finish a side-project on a deadline. This is almost done, allowing me to finish my research and submit my PhD dissertation.

Other than that, life has been very boring of late, so there is not much to write about.

I do wish to mention a friend who is currently working in Banda Aceh for Concern, helping with the tsunami relief. She emailed another friend the other day. He had told her I asked after her occasionally. It seems she is put out that I have not spent the last eight months alone in my room, sobbing like a baby, disconsolate at her absence. I found that quite funny.

I am looking forward to her returning. She is pretty crazy, and very easy to wind up in all sorts of entertaining ways.
