So much for that plan...

At about midnight last night, I was nodding off and couldn't concentrate on the chapter I was working on.  So I decided to have a nap, set the alarm for 2 am, and...woke up an hour ago.  Bugger.

Oh well, I guess I needed it.  I really had wanted to finish that chapter last night, though.  Got a cuppa coffee, had some breakfast, time to get to 'er.

Velocirapture 2011

Should've gone somewhere with no internet access...

Happy Velocirapture Everyone!

Here's a note and a handy flowchart, brought to us by the HR department of the Death Star, on how to deal with impending planetary doom. I personally will probably follow either the 'I'm a [wo]man of science' and the 'this is bullshit' route, or the 'panic' --> 'sit in shower rocking back and forther' route, both of which leads to zombification, but that's fine. As long as I have some coffee, I'm alright with that.

Also, for the believers sake, I hope the Oatmeals take on how God implements Rapture 2011 does not actually happen. Cuz that would suck.

Finally, I'm torn about my twitter page. I mean, tweetygotback has an inspiring background available, but I like my pretty flowers!

Honestly, I wouldn't normally make fun of someone else's beliefs, but I just can't take this seriously when someone tells me that only a special group of people will be saved and everyone else in the world who don't follow their special set of beliefs will suffer and die.  Way to try to threaten people into your religion.  This just means people will take Christianity even less seriously.  Good job there, Camping.

On the other hand, if the world does 'end today' (although I think they're saying the world will actually be destroyed October 21st), that just means I don't have to submit my thesis on Tuesday! 

On that note, I'll leave you with one of my all-time favourite songs.  While I like the Great Big Sea version better, the REM video is nicely appropriate.

Last Minute Changes FTW

Man, I'm re-thinking how to organize my chapters.  More specifically, I'm considering abolishing Chapter 6: Conclusions, and making Chapter 5: Discussion and Conclusions.  I mean, all I'm doing is reiterating what I said in the discussion chapter, nearly section by section, and my conclusions are basically spelled out in the discussion.  IDK.  It's frustrating and I'm wasting time.  Maybe I'll toss something together and send it to super Super, see what she thinks.  I could always keep my previous draft of chapter 6 and fix it up if super Super doesn't like the amalgamated chapter.

Although now that I think about it, she suggested I do this ages ago.  Hmm...

Whatever, I don't have time to stress about it.  I'm doing it. 

So there.
