Apparently the Scholarships Response Form that I mailed in because I didn't have the energy to get over to the university... didn't arrive there. Thankfully, I've talked to all the people who need to know that yes, I am accepting their nice, shiny scholarship now. They've emailed me a form that I'll print out and fill in on Friday.

On a considerably more minor note, the customer card for use at the local supermarket that was supposed to be mailed out to me still hasn't arrived, either. This is the second one, as the first one didn't arrive back in August, despite their records saying it was.

I feel like I'm in some kind of postal black hole, and wondering if anything else I sent hasn't arrived.

Still, at least I have enough energy now to catch up with some of the work I've been missing, so there are positives. Cleared through a good 40-60 papers and 20-30 or so commercial websites for my summer research job last night, which is a damned sight more productive than I've been in a while. I don't know that it's sustainable, but at least some things are done.
