Strong Verbs Are Just Better

Y'know what? It's exceedingly awesome living with another medievalist around here. Having 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!
