When I'm feeling down...

... a good remedy is getting some work done.

Activity is good for you. Or at least for me.

The other thing I need to do, though, is write about what I'm doing. I want that penguinparens thing to become more of a research blog, but I haven't been doing things that yield to quick bite-sized explanation. I've got a few neat snippets about syntax that want to become blog posts, though.

Also, I need to roll around on the floor and stretch more often, because ow my back. This too shall pass -- as soon as I get a prosthetic cyber-back.

It's a good sign that I don't feel like doing Linguistics homework because research hackering with Mike is getting really interesting.

Also! Mark tristmasjedi and Christine lyceum_arabica are hanging out for the afternoon, and Mark was explaining his project on case-based reasoning, and that's cool, because honestly I didn't know much about his work until just now.

OK -- now to learn about tree-adjoining grammars or whatever!
