Gosh Cobweb, little bit of an anal fixation? ;-)

Young cobweb here enjoys a bit of toilet humour from time to time, she has said before, on the 'Last One to Post on this Thread Wins' thread ;-)

i finished no targets and am hence setting none for the week ahead, so that anything is good.

Be relaxing in the living room of a big house in the country that I own.

or sometimes, just a little trigger of something negative happening (by phone or email or ftf) and then coinciding with a bad day and CRASH.

No amount of pending work and nothing at all can pull one out of it.

Sorry to be cynical, but it's a miserable, miserable day.

@EmmaB : don't worry about cleverclogs. They display a fast-shifting alteration in their posts on here, from very helpful/friendly to spiteful/hurtful or sometimes just a bit uncomfortable for the poster they are responding too. The first is visible on many threads where they gave good advice on a number of things, and the last on ones like these.

:-)

I have spent all my free hours sitting in front of jeeves and wooster recordings (Eska, stephen fry reminded me to admit this) and now cant seem to stop :-( arrgh.

I love the way you (can) write DONE.

Today was a satisfying teaching day. A student came to me and said "i want to show you something that will make you proud." And showed me her distinction marks in an essay. Then she added "i listened to you, did what you siad , and managed to get a distinction".

I was quite speechless...

Wow Keepcalm!!

So I again went out with friends (this time five times the number than day before yesterday) for the evening and hence no work done. Plus bad time to do with health (arrgh)

teach today and I always prep last moment so that's today. Plans til Tuesday roughly:

1. to make the plan of the project lit rev (massive) to be done by 16th
2. to make a plan for submitting the article that has been waiting to be submitted. (coming tues)
3. Have just realised it's already time for yet another supervision(!) and hence to write three abstracts and a mini essay (for another journal, revieiwng a panel I organized and spoke at) to send all in on Saturday wich I realise is tomorrow.
4. submit said things, incouding journal article and
5. Rest.

And might I share a good news? Well, I submitted an 8000 word piece to a journal (good one) towards the latter part of the first year, (4 months ago), well, it will see the light of the day :-) and they've said it's really good and our only concern is the length but we are looking into it to see if that matters...

ah.

In all honesty :) I work with children and not with forums but other web stuff lol!! Wish you could be commissioned as an expert contributor sneaks-- 4 commissioned reports four from me - that would be a collaborative phD!!!

What on earth do you mean by this sentence on those who do not have an option but to stay here???????

Are you saying that one set of experiences shows reality more accurately than another set? So - 'Britain is a nasty country' according to your experiences and that can only be agreed with, but when contrasted with another set of experiences, from someone in a similar position which says 'britian is a lovely country' - this latter is invalidated and discouraged from being posted?

I know you are upset, but you are also a researcher for crying out loud!!!
