Incarnate

Published 12 September 07 04:54 PM

My thesis came to me last night in a dream. My thesis incarnate, I should specify, unlike other dreams about extra chapters in thesis related books or dreaming about the chapter I was writing. Somehow my thesis had taken on human form and was trying to talk to me. She looked like the Empress Jadis, from C.S. Lewis's The Magician's Nephew, and the assassin statues on Dr Who a few weeks ago, coming closer and closer. I couldn't hear what she was saying.

I'm pretty sure this is a sign I need to get this thing finished and handed in.
