here's a young man (but not a dancer from Chicago)

Now my PhD really is doomed. Have just discovered an American radio site (www.kcrw.com/show/mb) that plays 40 minute sessions (including video) of really good musicians so i've just spent my afternoon watching the fabuluos Sufjan Stevens. Had one of those days where i can't really concentrate and have been easily distracted (went for a run, had to show a builder round, answered the door loads) and haven't really done much work as a result. Tommorrow is my first day as a tutor, i've been assigned 9 18 year olds to look after (8 blokes due to the alphabet) so bit nervous about that but hey got some positive feedback about my teaching from last year which was nice but then proceeded to loose all confidence in a meeting about the course. I also appear to be loosing the ability to remember basic things to the extent that in a shop yesterday and was asked if i needed any help to which i replied yes and then stood there for a couple of minutes trying desperately to remember what it was i was after.
