My ex took off with the dining table. Now I must admit I never liked his scandinavian white design (you can sneak a peek at it beyond the teapot) so no tears shed! I’ve ordered a replacement in glorious oak but the darn thing will only be delivered in weeks.
For me though, the thesis needs the table not the bed – which my Egyptian friend swore she did hers on, that crazy wonderful lady – though what is really handy for some is that amazing Amazon contraption which btw, I am not sponsoring but love to insert links to real world objects in my posts. Back to the table: I need room for my mug, computer, extension monitor, elbows, the book stand, etc. So Ikea trestle it is, all set up and gtg, no excuse!
Log: 23rd and 24th: Got stuck in, printed out the draft chapter and revision comments and started ‘knawing’ (a combo of gnawing-knowledge) at the chapter re-write. To procrastinate I ordered a book which I was advised would help my academic writing style. It mediated well between the interviewee’s voice and the writer’s. Am still not happy with my opening chunk, but there it is. I have set up my revision parameters and will make progress tomorrow. The brain, it is getting immersed. I’ve begun.
