I'm ahead of schedule on work but so behind on my thesis, lalalala... At least I'm winning at something in life. Had a wee chat about options after and there's some leeway for working remotely but it depends on what comes in. Boss is very sympathetic to my wanting a break from Melbourne to help reset things. It's just that the next few months are very uncertain in terms of workload so, we'll have to see.

Might be an ad-hoc/super part time thing while I'm away which is good enough at this point.
