Have a short blog

This week has been stressful for many reasons. Mainly due to Science Fiction- I cannot think of a topic. Or rather, I had a topic that was so vague that I could not get focused on it at all. However, I did arrange a meeting with my tutor for Friday to discuss the idea I had and have successfully got an argument. I'm arguing in favour of fantasy literature as a legitimate genre of literature, how it is related to the science fiction novel in terms of themes and if they can actually be separated or if they are actually blurred.

The other major stress of the week was trying to sort out my getting my computer back. It has been in Cambridge since August. For a health check, which was supposed to take a month at the most.... Last time I checked, November was not the month after August, unless the whole world is lying to me!

So yeah, cue ANOTHER week of calling them to sort it out. Although I have no faith in a company that doesn't feel the need to tell a customer when the computer is ready to be returned and had been for a month. DO THEY NOT KNOW HOW TO CONTACT PEOPLE?

On the plus side, it should be coming on Monday afternoon. Hopefully. Needless to say, something went wrong with delivery, but that is a story/rant for my next blog.

Other positives, rather oddly, include getting the Georgian literature questions and actually wanting to do about half the questions on first reading of them. always a good thing. And the Shakespeare idea seems quite content with itself, until I actually start working on it next week.

Which means, expect next weeks blog to involve a rant about Iansyst, a description of why I either hated or loved London on the Saturday and how the dissertation meeting went.
