"To shreds, you say..."(The Calendar Of Hell)

Day by day, landfall of the Watschenfeld 2005 workgroup colloquium where we all present our research results of last year comes nearer.
And samely day by day, I feel more and more like an amateur.

At least, finally, today, I thought of creating a Calendar Of Hell, a long-forgotten but efficient way of organizing myself. Whenever an important date of exams or presentations came nearer, during studies or in school, I used to draw a large calendar chart, giving the number of days left until the examination date, and the milestones to be achieved until then. At least when there's only a limited and small number of remaining 24h-batches left, I come to grips with my Sirtaki working strategy and finally start working in earnest.
Today is one of these days.
