It was quite a relief. Writing the essay was absolutely worth the effort, and mining the riches of O'Donovan's works was one of the most profitable things I've done at college, I reckon. I looked at the issue of homosexuality as a case-study in applying his ethics... wow. Some of the most pastorally deft stuff I've ever seen, I think.
Anyway, today was the first day of beginning to really refocus onto exams... but it was also a day for repair.
My laptop has accumulated about six separate, niggling little issues over the course of the last year or so. I'm not too bothered about it; that's technology. None of them are mission critical, but each of them is annoying. Today I checked her in to be repaired. Here's hoping!
Part of my prep for the ordeal of being separated from my laptop for several days was printing stuff I'd need. I was stunned: I had to print soooo much! People deride the paperless office as a ridiculous myth, but, in all seriousness, the paper-equivalent to the document's I'd access in a few short days runs to something around 70 pages.
As I was printing I could almost smell the exhaust of chainsaws felling old-growth forests by the footy-oval. Speed those repairs!
