Awesome version of ‘Just’
Mark Ronson has done a version of (Radiohead’s) Just. The song itself is pretty cool, but the video and song together are truly awesome (and feature references to Bristol’s beloved Banksy).

Blast from the Past
James asked me about a strip I used to have an archive of. Only he couldn’t remember the name. Sadly nor could I. Having dug through my CD-Rs of backups I discovered that I didn’t appear to have any RiscPC backups – frustrating (not that I’d’ve been able to read them properly anyway). Having discovered…

These papers…are awfully…similar.
I’m not quite sure how I didn’t notice before, staggeringly blind is a phrase that leaps to mind, but two of my papers are actually by the same person discussing the same research. Granted they’re a year apart. Granted they cover entirely different segments of the research. And they have entirely different titles. But I…

Oops.
So, I did the run to Bath and back in about two hours which wasn’t too bad given the time for me to hand in my Petrol Reclaim form, hand in EU packs, my essay, and find parking. Oh, and I stopped to buy bras. My bra collection, if you could call it that, was…

Until the sun comes up…
So, yes. Last night, as some of you gathered, I was feeling more than a trifle stressed. It actually managed to keep me from sleep – the House auction, Dissertation, my mum and the Motorbike all coalescing in my head and preventing me from any of the release of sleep. Eventually I managed to put…

Crisis of Confidence
So I’m staring at my dissertation. All… let’s check now… all 343 words of it and I feel completely fucking lost. I know what the research says. It says being a Gay or Lesbian patient in the healthcare environment sucks. It says you’re likely to feel insulted, abused, have insufficient pain relief, it says you’ll…

The MOT
So I was all ready. I popped Cherry outside to bask in the sunlight while I checked her over. Tighted up the seat bolts, which I’d not noticed were loose yesterday. Popped her out on the paving… and noticed a drip. Hrm, I went in to get the spanners – perhaps that brake hose was…

Concentration span of a flea
Damnit. I was just about getting into the work. Just about. Words weren’t exactly ‘flowing’, but they were kind of plodding. It wasn’t great, but it was okay. And then I looked at the time. I looked at the time and thought, ‘ack, I wonder if all my bike gear’s still around’. So I went,…

Limits
I have finally found something that scares me. My dissertation. The section I’m about to write is a puny 4,500 word, I’ve been thinking it was 6,000. But. I don’t feel like I know the papers well enough. I don’t feel prepared to write it. I’m fucking terrified. I keep looking at this other person’s…
