Settled into the Xmas slow routine. I'm enjoying it as it's a hell of a change of pace. I never used to enjoy the slumming around doing nothing, but after the term that I've just had, I'm revelling in the absence of over-stimulation.
However, I get worried that my brother isn't enjoying his holiday. He's one of my favourite people in the whole world, and one of the nicest people ever, with a real kind heart. I think he's bored, and I'm worried he's feeling sad. I don't really know what to do to change things around for the better. He's just spent most of the day kindly getting my computer working and teaching me how to use it. Hopefully we're going to brave the crowds tomorrow and have a jaunt to the shops and that might be entertainment enough...
To all who are unhappy, sad or depressed at the moment, my thoughts are with you. May things improve, and may you grow happier and happier every moment of every day.
Love

Thesis boredom.
Hi everybody!
Sorry for the hiatus. I've been trying so hard to write this thesis, and the time I'm most productive is in the evenings, and that's also when I tend to write updates for this blog.
Anyway, I don't really have much to say anyway. When you're chained to the computer, staring at a blank screen all day, day after day, and you don't do much else, you don't have tales of daring, dragons slain, foes vanquished. I do have tales of a stiff back, a numb posterior, mind numbing boredom and work avoidance. The thesis is coming along very slowly. I'm developing sore, square eyes. I have no idea how computer programmers cope with staring at a screen all day every day. I assume they go home and avoid TVs and computers like the plague (Actually having met a few, they go straight back onto the computer as soon as they can, and play World of Warcraft allowing them to slay dragons and vanquish foes).
My main avoidance technique at the moment is YouTube. I'm not exactly one with his finger on the pulse, but I'm enjoying listening to music videos while I work and also quite a few cool covers.
Better get back to work...
see ya!
