at least everything else is done
Sep. 29th, 2023 08:20 amThesis work progress has been moving at glacial speeds this week-- the task of changing all of the chapter and section number and figure numbers to code so that they will automatically number themselves appears to come with some sort of deflection spell, so that I don't manage very long per session, and then I suddenly find myself in the other room painting a banner, or ironing garb, or packing for this weekend's event, or cooking, or other "quick task" that feels terribly important just then, and, as a bonus is NOT carefully inserting the correct code for each level of heading or figure reference. Somehow it is terribly easy not to return to the computer for the next session. Hopefully I will manage to get through that part of the project soon despite my productivity on other things as I avoid doing it, and can resume actual forward progress on the project. It would be nice to actually be done this term as planned, and then decide what to do next.
edited to add: One of the distraction cooking tasks was to recreate the yummy baked rice cups I made for the last road trip. This time I used the amounts recorded in the blogg, and can report that while I only guessed at how much of each thing I had used when writing it up before, following those amounts results in a Really yummy food, and it is taking restraint to not eat them all up, so that I will have some for this weekend's event road trip. 100% recommend. Will do again.
