So, by day 2 (yesterday) I realised just how ambitious my plan of work was. Unsurprisingly I am already behind, but today has been good so I'm not as behind as I could be (if that makes sense). And if my mega interview has been transcribed well then I could even be (sort of) back on course by the end of the week. As long as I can carry on ignoring the pile of library books that need reading. They're the part of the plan that I'm ignoring at the moment.
I've just submitted an abstract for a conference in Helsinki in December. I've never been to Finland, so hopefully it'll get accepted. Unfortunately I don't think I can justify going if I'm not speaking at it. Mainly because there's a conference next year in Belgrade that I want to go to even if I'm not speaking at it. We'll see :)
In other news, HD is the giant snotmonster today. He's been off work, and I have regularly had my listening to interviews interrupted by trumpeting and sniffling. Funnily enough though it didn't affect my productivity, I did do a lot today. I hope he gets better soon though - I can't believe one person can produce so much snot.
