End of the great productivity wave?

Well, it seems that the long-awaited end of my extremely productive phase has at last arrived. This week has been highly mediocre so far and I’ve been unable to muster up much enthusiasm for really getting too much of anything done. So this means I’m moving on to looking at some reading for the theory section of my thesis. This will not be quite so exciting, of course, and will certainly not lead to pretty plots.

On the other hand, I do still have two talks to prepare for a couple weeks from now, so those are going to have to move ahead regardless of how productive I’m feeling.

Basically, this week has been pretty much a wash-out in terms of work. I guess next week I’ll have to try to do  better.
