  1. Been putting off starting on a pointless essay. Emboldened by the thought that if Maggie Smith can do Downton Abbey, I can do this. I think she was paid above # rates, though. #

  4. Also pleasantly surprised to see my old # tutor Geoff Turnbull providing the music at the # Hotel. He's really quite good. http://gigs.gigatools.com/user/GeoffT https://www.reverbnation.com/geoffturnbull/songs

  6. Holy cow. Was not aware that # City Library membership gave you access to EBSCOhost and other useful sources: http://libraries.coffsharbour.nsw.gov.au/research/e-resources/Pages/default.aspx # looks more and more like a bum deal.

  9. Finished last # for the session. Woo-hoo! Now to all the other work I've been putting off. Woo, I say, hoo. #

  10. Keep getting harassed via email to provide "student feedback". I will not snitch on my colleagues in the academic community for the benefit of scam artists who run # universities. # #

  11. I don't believe for a second that # uses # I wouldn't, were it not for # The cursing and swearing I've been doing this term… https://u.fsf.org/1ef

  12. Miserable experience last night doing a "presentation" that was really just shouting into the cyberspace void with no clue as to whether anybody was listening. Spent today in the usual # funk.

    Tuesday, 15-Sep-15 08:23:24 UTC from microblog.ourcoffs.org.au
  13. Brought a Proustian remembrance of gravel-rashes long since past. Also agony as my bruised and bloodied hands completed the essay's reference list on my return. #

  14. Was disciplined, and didn't go out today until my essay was all done bar the typesetting. Finally strode urgently into the moonless night to get to the shop before it shut, tripped on the water meter, and faceplanted into the driveway. #

  15. Just finished a 1000-word mini-essay that on first draft ran to 983 words, rather than the usual 3000. So proud of myself I could squee! #

  16. I'm not even trying anymore. Preparing to write an essay by listening again to recorded lecture on the topic, so I know the bullet points I'm expected to parrot back. #

  17. batcave it. VPS provider has shut down my antiquated and probably insecure mail server. Worst possible time, with # assignments due. If I'm providing your email, expect lengthy service interruption.

  18. Hitting the # wall. Just cannot bring myself to sit through a recording of yet another shambolic, disjointed # Collaborate tutorial.

  19. Have an online exam at 8pm - in half an hour. So instead of being fed, slightly sloshed, and half asleep, I'm fed, slightly sloshed, and half asleep, _and_ have an exam in half an hour. #

  20. Would like to thank the fine people at # who require proof of my # enrolment (fair enough), but left it till the day before a payment to ask for it.

  21. Submitted a not irredeemably horrible essay. Running so far behind on everything. #

  22. At the end of day four with no computer but my 800px wide #, I am so grateful for web developers who go the fluid width extra mile. And the people responsible for # and # can go to hell. # #

  23. Like a fool, tried to use # Collaborate again. Same old memory leak issue, turned it off and on again as usual, got "Conference locked." Fine, I can take a hint. #

  24. In academic literature, you can replace the word 'critically' with 'um' and lose nothing. #

  25. Politics unit has started with discussion board post: "Ron Paul is a hero of mine." Bite tongue. Bite tongue. #

  26. Anybody who has to work with moving-target proprietary APIs has my sympathy, but # says a fix for their # widget won't be ready till next year! What takes that long? #

  27. Can only conclude that # is the ultimate in emperor's new clothes. Anything you want to say can be Foucauldian, since nobody is sure what, if anything, Foucault meant by all his hand-waving. #

  28. Major effect of # so far this year: I'm perpetually a fortnight behind on my # feeds. Still no smarter.

  29. After a year and a half of #, I've physically met two of my lecturers. What if the others are all Andy Serkis in a one-piece suit covered in dots? Man, he's good.

    Thursday, 21-May-15 13:04:30 UTC from microblog.ourcoffs.org.au
  30. Bit depressed about # Not doing good # Granted, nobody is asking me to do good work, but I'm not even trying to buck the system anymore.
