Still thinking about excessivity I have been trying to sort out my ‘question’ with which to apply for a phd. How do I fit in everything…… EVERYTHING that I need and want to know into one consise and to the point question? I have written and rewritten, tied myself into 50 thousand complicated crochet knots and gone completely round the houses and back through the front door to pretty much where I started.
Which brings me to the point – how do you talk about humour without
a) deconstructing things until they are no longer funny
or
b) not being taken seriously?
Yesterday I went to a very interesting workshop and as part of the ‘where you are now’ bit we had to decide where we were on the ‘Blob Tree’. Everybody’s resonse was revealing. My little blob person was the one having the most fun but was s/he getting anywhere?
How do I use the rope to climb the tree? and keep the smile on my face?
