bedlamsbard: natasha romanoff from the black widow prelude comic (bring it starbuck (scifi-tv-addict))
*sighs* Must remember to put Dust 21 on my flashdrive, because I want to work on it, but it currently only exists on my laptop, which I don't haul up to CWU, and therefore...I can't. (I don't generally use Google Docs for fic writing, just co-writing.) I suppose I could, like, study? Or something.

It is so windy, omg.

In other news, I have been watching Prison Break, which I have not seen before, and am now up to, I think, 2.02? As others have said, it is so ridiculous, but you know my competence kink, and Michael keeps hitting it. Also, Mahone just showed up, so I see it's going to be triggered again! Yum.

(Geniuses in a room: Rodney McKay, Spencer Reid, Sam Carter, Nathan Stark, Allison Blake, Tess Fontana, Tony Stark, Lex Luthor, Michael Scofield, Sheldon Cooper, Gaius Baltar, why are there not more women on this list, WHO WINS? I'm going to go with Sheldon getting beat up, actually. Also, where is the story where Nathan Stark and Tony Stark are related? Granted, I am missing, like, the entire cast of Eureka.)

In other news, there is yet MORE WHACKY STUFF happening with the Japanese side of my family. I said earlier on Twitter that the American side doesn't get up to that sort of shenanigans, but then I remembered that we have an entirely different set of shenanigans (hi, Dad). Must get in touch with my cousin (not the one my uncle and my grandfather tried to marry off, her older sister) and find out if the internet gossip train is correct or if the fatherly rampage is unsubstantiated.

*sighs* Off to class. Wow, got no studying done.

Am looking at classes to fill the slot I was going to have Latin 101/102 in the fall. Guys, this is the textbook list for Greek and Roman Magic (CLAS 4810):

Greek Magical Papyri in Translation, volume 1
Curse Tablets and Binding Spells from the Ancient World
Magic, Witchcraft, and Ghosts in the Greek and Roman World
Magic in the Ancient Greek World

WHY AM I EVEN QUESTIONING WHETHER OR NOT I WANT TO TAKE THIS CLASS. The textbooks sound much more interesting than the ones for High Middle Ages (although that one includes the Song of Roland, which I do want to read, and if I take Greek and Roman Magic then four out of six classes are classics classes (the other two are MEMS classes, Shakespeare I and the Age of the Vikings), which isn't really an issue since one of my majors is Classical Studies). The other possible classes on the docket are High Middle Ages (HISA 3970), The Victorian Era (HISE 6380), and Beginning Greek (GREK 1010). I should take Greek, but I don't really want to, and then I'll be taking both Latin 102 and Greek 102 in the spring.

I'm kind of considering dropping a class so I can pick up High Middle Ages too -- if I did drop something, it would probably be Pompeii: Life in a Roman Town (CLAS 3190), although that one sounds really interesting! And useful!

Do not ask me how many textbooks I have for the five classes I'm signed up for. Y'all don't want to know. Thirty-two, for those wondering. Thirty-six if I take Greek and Roman Magic. Sometimes being a lib arts major sucks. Sadly, the class with the least books is Shakespeare, probably because you can buy all Shakespeare's works in one volume.
