Oh, Ack

So, an abstract of mine was accepted for a conference in April. That makes a chapter of my diss and a 20 page prospectus to complete in early February, a long talk based on that chapter I have to give at the end of February, one short talk I have to give in early April and one long one in early May, and another chapter of my diss (half-written, thankfully) that must also be done at the start of May. OK, I'm freaking out now. On the upside, freaking out seems to be good for my writing. Speaking of which, I'm back to work now!
