I guess I have to write something because not writing today would invalidate the whole journal aspect of blogging. I should start by noting that I feel no different than I did yesterday except for the marginally more pressing urge to prepare for Thursday's exam. It's marginal in that neither the old nor the new degree of urgency is particulary extreme.

I don't like being the centre of attention, not because of some inbuilt humility but because it always means more work. "We'll do what suits you." That just gives me responsibility I don't want. How about just letting me veto other people's descisions about dinner? The remuneration is good though.

I had exactly the same problem. I solved it by rather losing my temper with people who kept asking me what I wanted/where I wanted to go/find X out etc. the end result was that people got the message that what I really wanted for my birthday was /less/ hassle. Anyway, enjoy.
