That's right, mascara snake!
Mar. 22nd, 2006 07:30 pmMy life is more than graduate school rejections. It is thesis and World of Warcraft! And now Latin. Stupid Latin. I made the mistake of doing all my homework last week, so now I get to brood miserably over my thesis. Fortunately, Melinda has come through with a Latin assignment for me. Never thought I'd write those words, let me tell you.
So the COOLEST thing happened on WoW last night. I saw someone named something unusual--a Hellenistic queen name. Given that my 'toons are both named for a Macedonian queen, I thought, "Another ancient history fan? Neat!" and sent a tell saying I liked the name and was jealous that she'd thought of it first. We got to talking, and it turns out she's working on her Master's in ancient history. Not only that, but she's actually heard of Kyra AND she even belongs to one of the same lj communities I do! SO AWESOME. I believe at this point she started singing "It's a Small World." See, WoW isn't detrimental to my career!
It's been nice having Aspen back so there's someone awake during the day with me.
But it'll be even nicer to get back to the class routine. Honestly, I'm so much more productive when I don't have all this free time. If only I could get some damn thesis WRITTEN. Argh.
My new musical obsession: "Art Snob Solutions," by Of Montreal. This subject line and the last one are both quotations. Funniest song ever. And it's so me, too. Hooray for overeducation.
