(no subject)
I'm in Boston, and I live! After a reasonable night of sleep, I can even detect my brain again, although it feels a little like it's been hit by a truck. But that's a massive improvement on yesterday's two brain cells floating around in a massive void, unable to connect.
I look forward to more sleep tonight, hopefully resulting in me feeling more or less back to normal tomorrow for my presentation.
In paper news, I managed to scrape together a revised plan for my paper during my flight from Paris to Montreal yesterday (before I knocked myself out for a couple of hours after supper with a mini-bottle of wine), and I'm in the process of implementing it. It should allow me to significantly cannibalize the half-paper I've already written, and I've already revised my introduction in light of it. I'm currently lurking in Hillside working on it, and I'm about to transfer to the library, I think, so I can plug in my computer. I might swing by the history department on the way, and see if advisor R is around.
Also, in other exciting advisorly (or technically, ex-advisorly) news, erstwhile British advisor A has confirmed his attendance this weekend. Yay! Of course, that means I've had to revise his immensely useful thesis-formula (in this paper, I will examine X; I will argue that Y) out of my introduction, but I'm glad he's going to be here.
Anyway, back to work.
