Tom has chastised me for keeping silent, so here is a cobbled together mid-thesis post:
Agony: Mrs. Omission brings home a notice she wrote for work and it was written in the forbidden typeface. I suitably chastised her.
Gypsy whimsy: Mrs. O. makes up for this with a great story about a gypsy who came to the door to try to sell "enchanted gyspy stones", which turned out to be marbles.
Organic goodness: Went to the Organic Food Festival in Bristol. Decided not to buy an Ox-tongue, purely because it was very hot that day and I doubted being able to get it home on time. Instead I bought lots of vegetables, including tomatillos (small green mexican tomatolike things of goodness).
Well, back to the grindstone. I should be able to post my progress so far in a couple of days --- I know how much you all enjoy reading my academic outpourings.
I am so Mathcore.

To outdo you on spotting the most inappropriate use of Comic Sans: my friend's Art Foundation diploma from Chelsea College of Art and Design.
I found Comic Sans yesterday used for graph headings in a Yale University Press book about rivers.
Richard -- I think you should buy this immediately.
What happens if you don't get the Ox-tongue home on time? Does it turn into a pumpkin?
Yes, and then someone comes around your house with a slipper made of veal and tries to marry you. Terrible business...
Tom: you can tell that a university is rubbish when it can't be bothered to hang onto nice buildings. Unfortunately, I'm a little short at the moment...
