Bored and lazy

[frualeydis]

As usual on mondays I feel bored and unproductive. I've read the paper for today's seminar and put some figures in Excel, on material in clothing divided into three periods 1215-1339, 1340-1389 and 1390-1500. I'm trying to figure out a way to show it graphically, but the figures are so disparate so it might not contribute much and it would be better just to make some general remarks. Anyway, I'm just going ot use it for the conclusion in my chapter about how Scandinavian clothing changed between 1215 and 1500. There will be a separate chapter on material too, where not only material in clothes but also fabric that is willed is included.
But I feel hot, achy and tired and really want to go down town to buy black wool cloth for the guards on my black dress instead. But if you don't work also when you're not inspired you will never finish anything, so back to my figures!

Oo! Public! In that its in front of LOTS of other people??? *Bess quakes!* I'd be terrified even if I knew my subject!

Pity you couldn't get paid for translating it!!

Poor you with arthritis! My Dad has that quite badly!

I really admire you for that. Don't think academia in the UK has Vivas as bad as that!!!

When will that be?

Probably in the beginning of marchnext year. Now I'm not nervous at all, but I will be. But not for the people, but that the dissertation won't be good enough.

Well if you have that long you have time to prepare for it! But I am sure the dissertation is fine.
