what gorgeous spring days are for

i went for a cycle this morning.
that is a bit of a lie, it was more of a commuter cycle, but i enjoyed it tremendously nonetheless. it was one of those intensely foggy mornings (i can never get up without the excitement of a 5-year old on her birthday when it's like this outside! and it always smells so good!) visibility could not have been more than 50m, maybe even less! i wanted to stop to take a picture by thought it was wiser of me to enjoy the ride instead... that'll do.


i attended yet another seminar at the OUCS, this time on choosing the best Referencing software that works for you. as a linux user and a devotee of OpenOffice, as well as being a poor, unfunded student, i found it really hard to find a satisfactory system that doesn't compromise too much. either i must fork up about £100, or switch to Word, or continued referencing by hand.

i managed to get rid of my frustrations however by going to the gym. The had a new machine this time, one of those for those beefy guys who like to pump their arms and then look like little chickens down below. as i have no worries about looking like a little chicken down below, i went away at it. it felt great, until... i got home and had to shower. i could not keep my hands above my head long enough to massage the shampoo in. tomorrow is going to be interesting, that's for sure.

now i'm off to this: http://www.romanticrealignments.blogspot.com/2012/02/double-bill-this-week.html
it's my supervisor giving at a talk at my seminar. well, i co-convene it, but it's becoming a baby of mine. i'm a bit attached...

:D
