Context? What context?

You'll want to clarify this distinction between the different and the unknown different, as it is simultaneously sublime and vague and central to your thesis.

Such is the advice I have just recieved for my paper--which I am about to draft. It's due tomorrow morning. All I can really do is smile and perhaps get a kick out of how funny that sentence sounds all by itself. It reminds me that many people have lives much more complex and difficult than mine. The author of that quote is my English professor; he is working on his doctorate, teaching 4 classes at 2 institutions and his wife's due date is any day now.

Now, what was I complaining about?
