the last several days

have been busy. I keep working till we are sleepy, then stopping for yoga without posting. Alas, the work is all stuff that needs to be done in order to later have something to write about, so I can't claim any significant progress, nothing that shows yet, anyway. Fewer hours of work accomplished today--had to do a "tip run" in the morning (we don't have garbage collection here at the house, we we have to take our "rubbish" to the "tip" ourselves, where they charge us very random fees for the privilege--today it was $6 for more stuff than last time, when they wanted $9). This evening was Dance Practice. It was a very, very fun practice, with lots of people, a number of whom had never danced before, followed by a couple hours of just hanging out with some folks afterwards. Came home bouncy and happy, and, hopefully, inspired to really work lots on my thesis. However, it is nearly 1am, so now I need to decide: work more tonight, or get some rest and approach it fresh in the morning?

Random Fees

Trash as a comodities market? Trash is scarce today so we are going to charge you more?

She was addressing the fact that the guys at the tip charge a different amount each time we bring our "rubbish" out there. While it is more likely that different guys charge different rates depending on their mood, if they feel nice today, and if they noticed how much we dropped in the recycle bins before entering the fee area, I like her guess. If you aren't familiar with the term "commodities market", look it up.
