Why I ain't been a-posting

There comes a time in a PhD student's life when all his hard work of many years, all the efforts, all the sweat, blodd and tears, all the failed attempts and happy moments, the emotional rollercoaster ride that is a PhD must be summarised in a few pages.

A few meaning a lot.

I'm aiming for <200, so maybe not that many, but still a lot for me.

Whatever.

In other words, I've been writing up. Since mid-January to be precise, and I have until the end of March (firm deadline, no extensions, no worming my way out of this one).

It's not necessarily that I don't want to post something; au contraire, whenever I have to do some work my creativity flares up to prevent me from doing it - hence I suppose I'm writing this now instead of an introduction to two-photon absorption (you don't want to know).

But I'm really trying hard not to. Obviously not hard enough, but come on, give the man some credit. Me, I'm the man. Who da man? I'm da man. Word. And word to your motha.

Anyway (ahem), with this and that I haven't been posting and I sincerely hope that my next post will be in April.

(In the same way that I sincerely hope that - oh never mind)

Later dudes.
