Apr. 5th, 2005 11:21 amYou know those days when you just want to crawl under your desk and throw things at anyone that come near... (1)
Sodding differences of opinion as to what is considered to be the edge of a star and academics (possibly) talking at cross purposes...
Bloody StarOffice and various versions.
And it is not even lunch time yet.
Would say have attention span of goldfish but Mythbusters last night proved they have learning capacity... if trained and rewarded right.
On the bright side, I have an embroidery design for the neckline (and eventually cuffs) of a late Anglo-Saxon/early norman long sleeved gown (thanks to the Bayeaux Tapestry and Dress in Anglo-Saxon England). Sitting on the coffee table at home. Waiting for me... Want to try it on a period style embroidery frame (the pieces of wood are downstairs in the garage, but need better skills than mine with a saw...), but may be impatient enough to start with a hoop tonight. Mmmm thick wool - much faster progress than blackwork...
Want to curl up with Thief of Time under my desk, but I think the chocolate egg when I finish a nights worth of photometry may be enough to keep going. Somewhat more tangible results than herding cats.
(1) exacerbated by lunar phasing. must not bite heads off. must bite heads off...not... hmmm slipping there. I could just decapitate the rabbit but that may be a reward for finishing the full photometry set.
