2011 Project365 (day129)

Today I went up to uni to take my final printed thesis to the binders. While I was up there I popped into the Kibble Palace, one of the glasshouses in the Botanic Gardens, and took a few pictures. There were a few I liked I could have chosen for today, I hope you like the eventual choice. The printing wasn't without dramaqueenery. I was trying to save paper by printing most of them (apart from the one that has to be 'by the book' for the library) double sided; unfortunately our printer doesn't do automatic double sided printing so I was chained to the printer for most of the morning, and it didn't always play nicely, which meant that I probably ended up not saving much more than if I'd just printed them all out one-sided. And of course, just as the final version was printing, I happened to flick through the bibliography and noticed - on the final page - a doozy of a typo. You'd think, after knowing where I did my research and how long it took me, that I'd know by now how to spell "Romania". Sigh. I also popped into uni where they'd been holding onto my PC (although they want to throw it away) until I could get to see it and check there wasn't anything on the hard drive I still wanted to keep. While I was checking I also took the opportunity to download a heap of articles for a book chapter I'm working on - might as well make the most of the chance, as I won't get it much longer.
