Big accomplishments for the day are: killing a wasp in the kitchen via the overhand freethrow of a convenient magazine at the window, and finally perfecting that damned introductory chapter, which now comes in at a tidy 50 pages.

Three guesses as to which one I'm happier with. 

Off to KGB now ... y'all should come, if you like Elizabeth Bear and William Shunn.  As you should.

Edit: Saved by davekirtley.  Apparently, I'm off on KGB by a damned week - not because I believed that KGB had switched to the second Wednesday of the month rather than the third, but because I was honestly convinced that today was the 16th.  See, now, that's what the emotional distress of fixating on one's dissertation to the exclusion of all else can do to a gal ....

I mean, a week.  Plenty of people get confused about what day of the week it might be, but leave it to me to lose 7 of 'em.  

Bah.  Will still feel happy about the accomplishments, if a tad silly, otherwise.

P.S. - Come to KGB next week.  Now with advance warning!

Wouldn't miss it ....

Also, uh, sorry. :)

It's killing the wasp, isn't it? Right?

Er...how many guesses did I get?

Heh - no, right on the first go. I write papers all the time, but disposing of a potentially troublesome insect on the first go-round ... *priceless*.

And you didn't even have to get close! And those wasps are mean! Yay insect killing.
