work

Here i am at work making a post. Apparently the brisbane water proxy doesn't mind me making posts now. It used to block me. Anyway, I've nearly decided upon this thesis (the Academic Advisor). Uggh, anyway I hope it's not too challenging. But I want depth in a topic, and this has depth, though I'm just scared by the enormity of it. Is enormity a word? I've never used it before. I will also have to do things I've never used before. Like making a GUI in Java, and interfacing Prolog with Java. Though I'm fuckin awesome at Java. Also the supervisor for that topic has to be one of the coolest people I've ever met. When I first met him, we was talking about the thesis, and he was going on and on about study plans. And he said something like:

"Study plans are great. When I was at university, I was trying to spend more time with this girl. She was doing mathematics, and I was saying to her: hey if you do these courses you can spend more time with me. And now in 2005 we're celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary!"

I was impressed. He also managed to quote Basil Fawlty by saying "Now here's the tricky bit".

I nearly didn't get out of bed this morning. I didn't want to get out and do stuff today, but here I am. I drank an insanely strong cup of coffee just then. Whoope dee doo
