Back in lectures

It is with great pleasure that I can inform you of my return to the lecture theatre once again! As part of this semester, my supervisor thought it would be a good idea for me to attend his course on manifolds and topology; I'm afraid I cannot fault his suggestion in any way and attended my first lecture for nigh on two years this morning. It was great to be back in a chair, taking notes as the lecturer wrote what he had to say on the board and I can only hope that the lectures go slowly so that I can savour every last minute.

I can't ever remember having thought that before, so this PhD business must be doing funny things to my head. Actually, I don't doubt that for a second.
