My 'scientific nature of the whammy' paper just got accepted for the magic and the supernatural conference in Prague. On the one hand I'm chuffed cos this is a proper (scary) conference which runs for 3 days and last year's paper looked reakky interesting. On the other I'm turning it down because it looks scary (seriously-no powerpoint usage [which doesn't bother me but it means people will look at me rather than shiny XF clips], picking out the main points of the paper rather than reading it because drafts get posted to the site in advance), it's expensive (£245 plus accomodation plus flight), my supervisor would probably go a bit spare and I have no time or money to do it. But in a few years' time hopefully I'll be able to submit and go and that'd be cool.
In other news, I need more hours in the day and a job which leaves me with more than £74 at the end of the month (and that's when I'm on a tight budget).
Ok. Time to get up.
