Writer's Block: May 2007
http://pigletandco.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Still got the writer's block. Hoping that will change soon. Tuesday, May 01, 2007. Well, it's been a long, hard slog. Is taking ten years to complete a three year degree some kind of record? And here it is. Tomorrow I will finish my dissertation. Then it's a few essays and one little exam. In 29 days time I will finally be done with it. It's hard to describe my emotions right now. That's partly because I'm so tired that it's hard for me to feel them in the first place. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Writer's Block: September 2006
http://pigletandco.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html
Still got the writer's block. Hoping that will change soon. Saturday, September 16, 2006. I've put myself in the dog-house this evening because, having promised to make it to a friend's barbecue (and bumping into her in Tesco's on the morning of said barbecue, when she reminded me), I, in inimitable Piglet style, managed to a) get the time of the event wrong, and b) sleep through the whole thing. I have no right to call myself a grown-up. Sara, I'm extremely sorry, I hope you had a great time. Nothing ex...

Writer's Block: October 2006
http://pigletandco.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Still got the writer's block. Hoping that will change soon. Sunday, October 22, 2006. So I find myself at the end of a week that has been both surprising and unsurprising in equal measure. And unsurprising too, because this week has had an element of the utterly normal about it. Along with the exhilaration of new beginnings is a sense that this is really where I have been all along, I just had yet to realise it. A strange bed may sometimes feel like coming home. Friday, October 13, 2006. Boring: Reading ...

Writer's Block: July 2006
http://pigletandco.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Still got the writer's block. Hoping that will change soon. Sunday, July 30, 2006. For two days I couldn't stop moving, couldn't stop talking, just couldn't. The agitation builds and builds and finally I tip over the edge and go into a blind rage, which yesterday expressed itself in screaming at two men meandering across Princes Avenue as I tried to drive down it. At what point do I stop being able to handle this? Tuesday, July 25, 2006. It's nice, on a Sunday morning in Tesco's, when confronted by the w...

Writer's Block: April 2007
http://pigletandco.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Still got the writer's block. Hoping that will change soon. Wednesday, April 25, 2007. I've been offered a job. At first it was a bit of freelance work doing some interviews for an evaluation of residential homes in another part of the country. The firm who have the contract had contacted my mum (a freelance social worker) and asked her to do it. She has too much work on at the moment so she suggested I send them my cv. They liked it, interviewed me, and offered me the work. Sunday, April 15, 2007. I've ...

Writer's Block: Relaxed... Almost
http://pigletandco.blogspot.com/2007/04/relaxed-almost.html
Still got the writer's block. Hoping that will change soon. Sunday, April 15, 2007. Well, dear readers, after 5 days in France I'm somewhat relaxed. Or maybe just smoking again. Now I'm deep into dissertation territory, and the knot in my stomach is threatening to make its return. At least I'm not angry any more. I've spent many hours sitting at my desk surrounded by the detritus of academia, and rather fewer hours actually reading, writing, or engaging in any activity approaching the term.

Writer's Block: August 2006
http://pigletandco.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Still got the writer's block. Hoping that will change soon. Wednesday, August 30, 2006. That's the one that earned the cash. This is what it was based on:. Tuesday, August 29, 2006. The gap between posts is getting longer and longer. Partly a result of no longer having an office computer, as a result of no longer having an office in which to keep it (what with not having a job and all). Also partly just laziness and do-it-later-ness. Tuesday, August 15, 2006. I go along for the first weekend as it takes ...

Writer's Block: It's been quite some time... but here's some good news
http://pigletandco.blogspot.com/2007/07/its-been-quite-some-time-but-heres-some.html
Still got the writer's block. Hoping that will change soon. Monday, July 23, 2007. It's been quite some time. but here's some good news. I know, I'm a rubbish blogger. Here's some good news:. I got my first. I won two prizes - a departmental award and a faculty memorial prize. I am going to be having a phone call tomorrow with a professor whose work I greatly admire, and who has expressed an interest in my Phd proposal. I LOVE my job! I will, I promise, write a proper post soon. This is fantastic news!

Writer's Block: Confession
http://pigletandco.blogspot.com/2007/04/confession.html
Still got the writer's block. Hoping that will change soon. Tuesday, April 03, 2007. There's something not quite right about a grown woman, on her hands and knees on the pavement, arse in the air, as she scrabbles madly for a broken cigarette she has spotted under the passenger seat of her car. A tad unseemly, perhaps. Well, dear readers, this was the very sight my neighbours were treated to this morning. Sadly, the humiliation doesn't end there. And smoke it I did.

Writer's Block: Judgement
http://pigletandco.blogspot.com/2007/04/judgement_05.html
Still got the writer's block. Hoping that will change soon. Thursday, April 05, 2007. I found something today that upset me, though in the end in quite a different manner from how I'd assumed it would. When your boyfriend receives letters from a woman he had an affair with before you met him, and then chooses not to tell you about these letters, but leaves them lying around in a place where you can easily come across them whilst searching for your missing water bill, what does that mean? Unfortunately th...
