you know your board when...

1) you've checked to see if anyone has emailed you for about the 10th time in the last hour
2) the pile of books on the desk begin to look exciting (the titles include: Rich county Intrests and Thrid world development, the history of development, soils and the environment x2, and how to do you dissertation in geography...)
3) your room is tidy and you've done the washing up... again!
4) you start writing your notes in different colours, not to help learning, but to brighten up the page
5) you started writing this post!
