D-day -144 (-28)

Dear fellow fellowers and followers*. I regret to tell you that the regrettable day, as expected has arrived expectedly. The day when no measurable progress could be measured, no quantifiable text amounts be quantified, and no deliverables delivered. This, my friends and unfriends, is the day when the Thesis Quest as far as countables go, has been definitely put on hold. This is also, however, due to this day’s not at all completely nonexistent work, the day before the day when the Unfinishable Script (also known as Paper VI) might finally move from the shadowy limbo realm where it’s been lingering for unfathomable lengths of time (more than a year, to be precise), into the celestial domain of Submitted Papers.

Since all my work here revolves around progress that can be measured, I’ve (like I’m sure any Real Scientist would do) today altered the way progress is measured. 


...and so another day at the Schloss ends in glory, with a giant leap from 45 to 48%!
