I love love love love ...Thanks for the kind wishes. I love love love love LOVE it here. A day in my life (today): woke up early, showered, grabbed a cup of tea at a nearby shop; met my historian friend from Norway to practice Latin (we're translating the psalms for practice/fun); took a break for lunch and visited the Fitzwilliam museum, where we examined illuminated medieval manuscripts, bits of which we can now read (!); went back and translated for another three hours; went to King's hall for dinner, and ran into a King's grad student studying political philosophy and history of science; moved to the college pub and discussed philosophy, structuralism, and Norse sagas for about three hours; moved to the college library, which has books to its high ceilings, dark walls, and dark corners to read in, and plunked down to read a Middleton play I found on the shelves but hadn't heard of before; came home to play on internet and ... rinse and repeat.<BR/><BR/>Professionalization be damned. I. am. in. heaven. <BR/><BR/>(doing my best to avoid joining the deadly email queue.
