Good morning!

[onefixedstar]

Today's the big hand-in-our-SSHRC applications day. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be getting SSHRC funding this year, partly because my MA supervisor has not been encouraging about the kind of letter he can write with my Master's thesis incomplete (and I get the impression that the fact that I've taken so long could well mean I'll never get another good letter out of him again; fortunately this will probably be the last one I need from him), and partly because I've been so busy that I haven't put as nearly as much time into writing my program of study as I should have. Plus there's the whole lack of publications thing. Oh well, there's always next year, right?

Back to work now. I'm really, really, really stressed.

ETA: In an attempt to increase my stress level, my USB key just decided to erase everything I had stored on it. I think everything was backed up elsewhere... ::crosses fingers::
