A Post for the Asking

Once upon a time, 10,000 words ago, I sat here to begin writing my dissertation. Tonight it sits beside me, printed and bound, and as finished as a piece of furniture, but perhaps not quite as polished. And in a student room that is really saying something. But the main thing is that it's done and at 11pm so am I. [Yawn.] I'm off to bed. Tomorrow is a new day, to point out the obvious, and (the tragic) a new paper is due. Here, I suppose, is as good a place as any to ask for an extention. So Dr Jonathan Munby, if you are reading, is Monday okay? Please direct your answer to the usual essay extention e-mail account, and I'll see you non-faculty blog readers tomorrow.
