I say ... and you think ... ?

I'm watching THEM! on SBS and the bespectacled boffin explains how, if they don't get the giant ant queen and her mate, it might mean the end of survival for the human race. Cut to an ad break and the first thing that flickers up is "THE NEED FOR SURVIVAL" which is advertising a show called Forgiving Dr. Mengele. And now, a grasshopper has just popped onto my computer desk!
If only I was Jung again, I'd know what it meant!
I've started, I've actually started on the proposal.
This was after a row with Kevin this morning over the fact that my drinking chocolate tin mysterious turned up up in the sink in a pot full of water. I have been very stressed over this, and having aunty Glennis die this weekend hasn't helped (neither was the fact that al of a sudden there's a mountain of washing up sitting in the kitchen).
But I started. Of course I've got to do a lit review, list theoretical orientation, propose a methodology, timetable and chapter outlines. The official idea is now:
Statement of Topic
This is an investigation into the role static and dynamic electronic/digital art and emerging virtual technologies such as Second Life in the lives of those undergoing gender transition.
Aims of the thesis/dissertation
What influence does such have upon a person's self image, before, during and after gender transition? How does the ability to project an image of oneself into a virtual environment affect the behaviour and aspirations of those undergoing gender transition in relation to their own self image, and compared to those not undergoing gender transition?
