@arch: good luck to you too, may the bu be with you again.
@mags: ouch. keep us posted on the results.
@kc: i am sure that you have enough experience of concentrating on the music itself that after a few seconds the audience is going to disappear from your line of vision and thought, and you'll play exceptionally well.
nf: i. have. sent. my. revised. paper. in.
*phew*
tomorrow i have a shitey day since i'm supposed to act as discussant in a conference i couldn't care less about. i haven't even read the damned paper i'm supposed to comment upon, but i have all morning for that hence it shouldn't be a big problem, just a bit bleah.
on the bright side, one of my mates is going to come back from a trip to frankfurt and i'm sure he is going to have more than a few fun stories. and i am most definitely going to leave the office early because i need some exercise, which i didn't get today or yesterday due to work work work.
update: i'm feeling quite thoughtful at the moment. i've just been told that i am refusing to even try to destructure the assumptions we all hold on to when it comes to relationships. that happened because a friend of mine for whom i used to have a strong attraction said 'i'd love to watch how you bring up your kids if you have any' and i said 'i'd really hope for the prospective father of my kids not to be pleased with the fact that another man, who by the way is quite involved with me, is closely watching our children grow'. he said that jealousy is childish, and i told him that i don't need jealousy, i just need a handful of straight ideas when it comes to relationships. hence the fact that i am not willing to destructure assumptions that may not have any true basis.
i concur, i'm not willing. maybe i'm mentally lazy. i hate being lazy, but i just don't have the guts or enthusiasm to go in that direction.
