made for the chapel with some spraypaint for all the things we'd held in secret

Gym: 2 miles in 23.5 minutes, which is an improvement over last week. Still can't run a continuous mile, but got this result by doing faster intervals. Some weights, a short go on the bike, stretching.

Sigh. Need more endurance now.




Also now: need to write more thesis. Which is hard, because, well. Thesis.

Mazower is a great historian and he loves that region of the world, its cultures and people. I highly recommend his Salonica: City of Ghosts as well.

That's another good book. (I read it before I went to Thessaloniki, two? two-and-some years ago, thinking I should know something more about where I was going to be spending a month.) I've occasionally wished he might do something similar to Salonica for the Morea - finding readable English-language histories of Greece is a bit touch-and-go, to say the least.
