Note to self
Jan. 27th, 2005 09:43 pmMmmm, Ceilidhs and foul colds* are a really, really bad combination!
Work proceeds slowly (only doing afternoons the last two days hasn't helped). I've ended up being respondent to Geraldine's presentation next week as the nearest person to her, no matter I have done Irish seriously since my MPhil and Irish lit since my undergrad days! I also have just under 5 weeks to prepare my presentation. It's weird, I've been trying to organise my stuff and work out where I've got too over the last few days so I've been re-reading stuff I wrote this time last year. On one level, I haven't got much further but if you compare what I've written I have actually made quite a lot of progress it's just spiralling rather than linear so I'm doing much the same stuff but I understand it far better.
*Yes, I was getting over my cold and even the cough had nearly gone on Tuesday. However, I woke on Wednesday morning with a sore throat and bunged nose and have felt pretty bad ever since. I've got more cough medicine now.
