Dammit.

I haven't caught up yet, and in consequence of course I'm falling ever further behind. :-(

I need someone like Thursday Next's dad to freeze time for me for a few days, so I can catch up without everything moving on at breakneck speed at the same time.

I'm also beginning to see more and more clearly that catching up/keeping up will be patently impossible during the thesis writing phase. I'm still only in the preparation phase, but even now it's proving more than I can manage.
