the week in ice and fog

Once again it is time for my weekly analysis of my writing progress.

none.

well. now that's over.

It hasn't been so bad. I had a GREAT idea about some data analysis and display which i was quite proud of. Hard to explain exactly but i will try. I have some data that i am using which other people have told me/inferred is not "fit for purpose" and that i shouldn't use it. I realised that they were not listening to me and had no idea what exactly i was doing with it. The upshot of all this is that (a) i can use the data (b) it fits my purposes just fine and (c) i DO know what i am doing.

I just need to remember sometimes that i do understand my own work better than others. Not to say i don't take advice or listen to them. I just need to stay focused I my long term plan.

The way i am going to display my data is still undecided. I mean i have loads of plots and stuff and they make sense but not really practical in a thesis. It is going to take a lot of explaining. If it were easy....

So. One good thing from the week. I think one day i will get there.

Now. For Kath. I know you enjoy reading this so something for you....sorry i had to stop for a pause because nothing funny happened to me this week. It was lovely seeing you last week tho! Better luck next time.
