Hectic

"Hectic - very busy with activity and confusion"

That's about right. I didn't think any week could top last week, but low and behold this one probably will. Even with a two day holiday at the end of it, I need those days to catch up without meetings! Today - teaching, meetings, writing my lecture for weds, writing a "prospectus" for big wigs for tomorrow, tonight wining and dining a guy from SEA. Tomorrow, taking big wigs on a tour of the SEA boat (we're trying to get funding for an undergrad course - have I mentioned that here before? If not i'll write something on it later), lunch meeting on that course, afternoon meetings about a proposal, probably still writing weds lecture. Weds, lectures, writing next week lectures. Other things on my list - revise a paper to get it in press (i'm running out of time!), three pre-proposals due end of next week, one final report, one other paper to finish to submit (it's so damn close!).........better get off the blog......so apologies if i'm a little absent this week.....
