Birthpains

I'm in the middle of writing an abstract.

One would think that writing an abstract for a paper that will address the same types of issues as The Thesis would be easy.

But it isn't. Well, it isn't easy for me.

Because I don't want to submit an abstract that is so vague that the paper won't be accepted.

But I also don't want to commit to a thesis that I might not be able to prove.

And if I'm having so much trouble writing the abstract, just think how much trouble I'm going to have writing the paper...
