According to lj I last updated six weeks ago, which is just a silly amount of time. I've been failing at reading my flist and commenting as well, so if anything major has happened I'm sorry to have missed it. Although good luck to everyone doing nano! I hope you all get your 50,000.
I have:
Started writing my dissertation. Slowly. Seriously, it takes me about three days to write one paragraph. So I'm starting to panic.
Been cheering Arsenal, moping over Falkirk, and WTF-ing over Scotland. 3-0 to Wales? I'm glad Burley's gone, but also kind of disgusted at the treatment he's been getting in the papers. Did anyone else see the Sun yesterday?
Decided I want a bike for Christmas.
Been watching I'm A Celebrity (Ant and Dec = love) and X-Factor (Team Jedward!).
Become freaked out by a new colleague erecting what can only be described as a shrine to Jade Goody on her desk. (I'm serious. She started three weeks ago, brought all these photos in a few days ago.)
That's about it.
So, anyone else freaked out that it's only 36 days till Christmas?

Yay Jedward! I'm backing them this year too. :D
Good luck with the dissertation!

Thanks!
