Where's the remote?
Sleet and rain, sore from too much (or rather too little and then suddenly some) exercize, tired students, nervous colleagues, formal restraints that put Colleges at a disadvantage relative to the Universities and commercial research institutes in the ongoing battle for research grants, not a word of the progress on the processing of my thesis, not even a hint that there might be progress, and there is still war in Iraq. It's one of those "I-wish-I-could-change-channels-on-reality" days.
