trocheegmail is down.
i'm at the lab at ten to eight, wondering if i should go out to get yakisoba while i write.
I'm very proud of myself today: I broke the block I was in, and I wrote three subsections of background. My hope is to take advantage of this momentum and actually finish a draft of the background chapter tonight (!)
I spent two hours today running down problems wtih bank transfers, and there seems to be something weird about my entire X session right now -- it keeps freezing firefox. And XMMS won't start. It's like the whole computer has bent itself on "no distractions for you".
but -- haha! I have found distractions aplenty. Among other things fished out of the P section of the stacks, I found Phonetic Symbol Guide by Geoffrey Pullum and William Ladusaw. It's like a little dictionary with a funny letter on each page. I love it. The introduction (available through Google Print) is fun for typography geeks like me.
