So I passed my Master's degree. No merit (as hoped) but a pass, which will do nicely ( Read more... )

You know I don't often pimp things here on my blog - except occasionally my own work - but this is something that deserves attention.

Whenever I buy t-shirts that aren't for bands, I prefer subtlety over logos. This is why neither of my Firefly shirts have the word "Firefly" written on them, but rather contain references which will only be ( Read more... )

So yeah, the disserting didn't get too far today. I've broken the ice on my first chapter though, so it's hardly all bad news. I want to get it finished by the end of the week, so by the time of the next update in a week's time I'm hoping I'll be able to tell you that the second chapter is underway ( Read more... )
