hey. i'm glad my talk is over too. phew. thats great that you managed to pick yourself up and finish :-) i had something similar. was really quite worried about the last section (thought it was a bit out of focus) and then somebody asked a question and it kind of floored me (because i figured that he hit upon a crucial point even though it wasn't about that - it was a manageable question really). but the question threw me off and i figured that everyone thought i was raving incomprehensibly... managed to pull myself together though and continue on.

supervisor said 'you didn't %#@&#! up' and he smiled (which is very good praise from him). he isn't hesitant to say 'you %#@&#! the dog, mate' to visiting profs from oxford etc lol. so i'm really happy that he thought i did okay :-) he did say that the last third was out of focus though... which was true, so at least i know i can trust his opinion lol. it was the first time i've given a ppt. presentation too... was nervous about that (typically i prepare a paper). but it went well :-) in fact... people seemed surprised at how well it went for my first time doing that (until the stumble in the last third)

i exchanged the script transitional object for the drug transitional object. i only take them rarely but i figure that i should have them to hand because they could have really helped me through last friday. i mean i coped eventually... but they could have really helped me. just one tablet. doing okay... would usually see him this morning. woke up really early and it kinda hit me that i wasn't seeing him today so that was hard... but going to be alright i think :-)
