I'm far too awake and alert.
It annoys me.

There is no point me going to bed either, as I'll get all wound up at not being able to sleep I'll fail to sleep for longer.

Do you actually get much sleep, being all thyroid-y?
do you need much or can you just keep going without it?
(berk, Tue 8 Feb 2011, 0:10, Reply)

I need it, but I don't get it.
Occasionally, I'll sleep for 12 hours +, but it's rare.

I can go for weeks of going to bed at 3 or 4am and then getting up at 8am without too many problems, then it'll hit me. And when it hits, it hits in a massive way.

You don't seem to get that much sleep either, how many hours a night do you get?

I need a minimum of 6 to function
but 8 is the ideal. I haven't had 8 hours decent sleep in ages though :(

I blame the storage heaters.
You seem to spend loads of time in bed keeping warm but not sleeping.

Possibly
although I don't buy in to that whole 'bed is for sleeping, if you get used to just sitting around in it you'll struggle to sleep in it' thing. I did the same at uni for the same reason with absolutely no problems. And although I might be warmer in the spring and summer, I sleep less well when it's light outside early.

Are you waiting for a child to
arrive at your house and tell you he has found a golden ticket for a trip to a chocolate factory?

Alt: What have you learnt from your last PhD interview?

I'm not, but that would surely brighten my day
that said, Cadbury World is only about 10 minutes away and it's meant to be very dull.
I have learnt that being nervous is ridiculous, and also that I should know that answers to obvious questions.

In which case.
Approach the interview full of confidence.
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 8 Feb 2011, 0:29, Reply)

I can't, I suffer dreadfully from nervousness in exams and interviews and stuff like that
but I will try to relax a bit more this time.

It is a two way process though.
If you think the labs and facilities are shit, voice your concerns, ask what investment is being made. Make them feel like they'd be lucky to have you.

Obvious answer is obvious

What are you studying?

( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 8 Feb 2011, 0:23, Reply)

Purcell's article on Livia
it's very helpful but I need to reread. How are you Jeff?
( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 8 Feb 2011, 0:33, Reply)

I'm okay thanks.
How is the world of cooking treating you?

I had fears of you living on sarnies some months back, are you eating well?
( JeffTheDogFucker Can you dig it?, Tue 8 Feb 2011, 0:38, Reply)

I'm not doing any at the moment
just soup and once or twice chicken. I should probably try and get better before Finals

I'm sitting here trying to work out how I could justify spending £220 on a jacket.
Luckily I haven't come up with anything so far.

Don't be a prat
just Say No. £220 is more than I spend on food and petrol in a month!
(berk, Tue 8 Feb 2011, 0:32, Reply)

I reckon it'll go down to £115 in the sale like the previous season's version.
But that's ages away, I want/need it now.

Been giving a few friends lifts home
From the Monday night poker game at the uni. Went out of the tournament early, but won all my money back and another £43 in the cash game so it's not all bad.
