Y'know what? It's exceedingly awesome living with another medievalist around here. Having [livejournal.com profile] kayloulee rush past me in the dining hall, only stopping to mutter out of the corner of her mouth "I realised I couldn't talk about confraternities, so I'm doing heretics instead!"1 makes me quite happy.

In other news... I procrastinated all day, and bribed myself through two chapters of translatin' the Institutes of Polity2 with the promise that after 10pm I could do exactly what I'm about to do: drink cider, and read articles about sex in SGGK. Fun times, I tell you.

I was feeling all excited about this, and then I walked past about five pubs playing happy old school songs such as I like to dance to. :( I piked out on a Eurovision party tonight, too, so as I could do work all day, but that was kinda ruined by my hopeless procrastination. :(

More cider! Articles on middle english bondage!

1. Which is actually for an early modern subject, but s'all the same when your history department sucks.
2. Productive hours, mind. Two chapters down! One, predictably, titled 'Item de episcopis', was about bishops. I decided to knock down 'Be Þeodwitan' while I was at it, just in case it had something to say about the role of bishops in the witan, and whaddya know, the whole damn thing was about bishops!

3.30pm: I'VE FINISHED THE ESSAY HALLELUJAH!

The heretics were very helpful actually.

Now to do my mountain of homework for Arthurian Lit, hooray.

Um. I would, except that I'm so sick of the damn thing that I don't want to work on it any more! Also I have hang-ups about letting people see my stuff, so it's not that I don't want you to see it.

So yeah. I might end up wanting you to look over some other stuff later, just not this because I'm completely over having anything to do with renaissance Italy for a while.

And I did go over it veeery carefully myself, so I don't think there's anything too heinous in it edit-wise.

hokay :)

Well, any time i'm not irretrievably swamped by my own stuff, I can look over things as needed. This will allow me to say that I did my duty as a member of the Academic Advisors Board. ;)
