One down, two to go
Thanks to the ridiculously high amounts of time the simulations take to run, I finished making changes to the book chapter today. Its pretty much all I did today. Writing can either be the most excrutiating task ever or the most satisfying task ever. There is no mid way point. There is nothing I hate more than to write on a day when I cannot get my thoughts straight. Those are the days when a blank screen greets you even after nearly putting in couple of hours of work. More often than not, I get my thought chain going, but my vocabulary derails. There are days when I have to most difficult time coming to terms with words more than 2 syllables in them. Thankfully today I had neither of the problems. I was able to concentrate on my work. I was able to get ideas flowing. Words were falling into place as if they were divined to do so. The text was almost poetic. I love it when I can write like this. Its almost like being in deep meditation. The world ceases to exist. Its just you, your thoughts, and your words. A nice comfortable warm safe universe of the trio. Its pure magic.
I still have the conference paper to tackle. Its not high on my priorities. QoH has some funding issues and he might not be able to send to the conference even if I get the paper complete. I have better things to do than waste my time on something that might or might not be published.
The device simulations are progressing well. I think I have basic design parameters down. I was trying to run a few complex simulations a while ago and it was reporting errors. I am too tired to work on it right now. I will get back to it in the morning. I got hot pasta and a movie on my mind now.
