Quoth the Raven

People have been subtly hinting that I have neglected my journal for the past year. 'Tis true. With the submission of the PhD (I always love the vaguely authoritarian connotations of academic language - you 'submit' a PhD, you 'invigilate' an exam, you 'supervise' your students and 'report' on their progress) and moving interstate I have let the LJ slide. Well I seem to have gotten the writing bug back so am going to 'try' and keep this up to date again in the moments in which facebook is not monopolising my online presence.

So i'm on my last day of leave before returning to a few weeks of intensive orientation for our new international students. I took a few days leave to do the corrections to my PhD that I should have done months ago. They are nearly done. Hopefully my supervisor will just pass them on without suggesting I do more. I really don't want to have to muster up another bout of energy for what seems to me now an exhausted project. Maybe in a few years it will be interesting again but for now It's just old news.

So with Tomb Raider on the box and a packet of salt and vinegar chips to hand it's once more into the breach...
