Even though I have physically stopped working on the Thesis for the moment, my subconscious is obviously still pretty preoccupied with it. Tonight I even had what could only be classified as a minor nightmare about it.
I dreamt that I collected the Thesis from printing, and it was so beautiful. Sure, it was dark blue instead of green, and sure, the title didn't quite match the content, but still - it was my Thesis! Then I realised that the title was almost illegible cause they had used a very strange font for it. When I started flipping through it, it got even worse. The entire text was a mix between Times New Roman and some fat, difficult-to-read font, that I've today identified as something in between 'Magneto' and 'Snap ITC', but with lower readability. Next I saw that the figures had all moved around. At this point I was shattered (in the dream) and asking everyone around me why I didn't get a test print first, like everybody else.
Then I woke up, sweating and with a lingering sense of frustration, but happy that it was all just a dream. Not to mention happy that I'm using LaTeX so these things can never actually happen.

Känner igen denna typiska åkomma som brukar dyka upp i intensiva perioder i livet, typ "Planet lyfter om fem minuter och jag har inte åkt till flygplatsen ännu, än mindre packat"
Å, typisk stress-mardröm! Känner igen det från ex-jobbet, fast då var det tyvärr ingen dröm... ;) Saknade dig i lördags! Redan bokat 3 mars för ny spelkväll - tänkte fånga in dig mellan disputation och hopp-premiär?!? Kram
Bra tänkt men det är med stor sannolikhet dagen efter disputation = dagen efter disputationsfest = dag jag inte tänkt åka någonstans alls ;)
