Oblivious to the gentle waves of empathy.

I spent such a long time trying to get my head around the first question on the Real Analysis homework.  Literally about two hours between lectures just looking at it and reading over notes and looking at it again and drawing a scribbly little sketch of what might be happening to a function of x.  I'd say my understanding did increase but it wasn't enough to get the answer on my own.  In the end I decided to change the inequalities in one of the examples in the notes that didn't quite go the way the question hinted at and not worry too much about what equates to around 0.01% of the year.  However, when we went to hand it in I had a look at AK's answer and it seemed to combine what I'd done with the hint from the question so I made a few amendments to my work and hoped it was a good decision.  Unfortunately I still didn't understand it well enough to know if I was just making things worse so it's back to not getting too hung up on 0.01%. 

I had a look at some recommended mods for Fallout 3 and now it won't let me leave to an exterior cell (or go outside if you don't want to be technical).  I tried disabling all the new mods and I've still got the same problem so I'll probably have to reinstall it.  That's a job for the end of the month when my quota is about to be reset. 

Yesterday I changed my tariff from one that gives me free texts and £10 credit for a month for £10 to one that gives me free texts for a month for £5 but no extra credit.  I thought I was still going to get the £5 credit, in which case it would have been loads better, but since I don't get the credit it works out to be pretty much the same as it was before.

I've been trying to learn some songs from The Dissent of Man on my five string guitar but I don't know the lyrics to most of them yet so it's slow progress.
