Which graduate maths textbook are you?

[pozorvlak]

I ought to be filling in my job application. Needless to say, I'm not: instead I've been reading the archives of my late (and much-missed) friend floor_sitter's blog. I keep finding entries I want to comment on, and then realising that there's no point. Damn, I miss her.

But anyway, a while back, she did a meme called "Which Springer-Verlag Graduate Text in Mathematics would you be?" (which appears not to exist any more, alas).

She came out as Categories for the Working Mathematician. Epic win :-)

Anyway, you're all no doubt dying to know my plans for Christmas and New Year. So's you know:

• I'll be heading South on Thursday 20th for the USLES panto and cast party.
• I've made vague plans to meet up with Eugenia Cheng on Friday, then I'm heading to Oxford some time on the Friday evening to see my family.
• They're going out without me on the Saturday night (the 22nd), so if anyone fancies meeting up in Oxford, that would be excellent.
• I'll be spending Christmas with my family.
• wormwood_pearl will be coming down to join me on the 27th.
• On New Year's Eve, we will be attending elvum's dinner party.
• We will be heading back North on the 4th.

Meeting up with as many of you as possible would be great, but I don't think we're going to make the VOLES party.
