onward and upward, or words to that effect
Nov. 4th, 2011 09:48 pmI spent part of today futzing around with Paypal, figuring out how to transfer money to my actual bank account, and vice versa. (I am behindhand, and have not heretofore done this thing.)
The rest of the day... Well, there was a very terrible Greek test, in which I - once again - discover I'm fine with vocabulary and not awful at parsing, but give me principal parts and I wibble to pieces.
Thereafter I spent much of the afternoon avoiding my thesis and working on a truly terrible fiction. It's a space opera, which I am playing with purely for the hell of, heedless of anything resembling quality control. Because I want to write about spunky space pirates and human trafficking this week, apparently. Rather than Describe All The Things.
Then socialising, in a civilised place on Exchequer St. And thereafter homeward bound, where I resolved that I should probably invest in Wheelock's Latin grammar, since it's less than half as expensive as the Cambridge course, and I keep thinking that Latin would be a useful thing to do.
(In my copious spare time.)
