Further distractions

We had a staircase breakfast and communion this morning, followed by a Hall Meeting (staff and students together, mulling over the term's events) which took us up to 11am.

I'm 2000 words into my first of two essays. The last 1000 words is going to be the difficult bit, so what better to do than get on with it, leaving the whole of next week free to polish off the second one.

Alternatively I could just check my e-mails, update my Facebook status, go for a cup of tea and have an interesting theological debate, pay a bill, meet Tasha after the spouses group and give a Christmas present. Before you know it there's only twenty minutes left before lunch, hardly worth starting now.

After lunch I hoovered my study (a very common essay avoidance tactic today, last day of term, when so many people discover where the hoover is kept), and then I thought I'd make another blog posting.

So here we are. I've run out of things to do. There's nothing now until chapel at 5.30. Three and a half hours. 1000 words. Head down, here we go.....
