i'm trying to work, i really am

* Damn the Penguin Classics series, damn them, for not putting line and section breaks in Tacitius. I like their translation so much better, but I have to use another one so I can cite him correctly. Grrr for having to use a translation that sounds icky. Hmm. Methinks it means much less quoting & a lot more paraphrasing...

* One in a should-be-series of Bizarre Words I Have Never Heard Of: "Animadvert," n. To remark or comment critically, usually with strong disapproval or censure. I found it while thesaurusizing (not a word, I don't care, I like it) "remonstrate." Man. Some of the words out there...

* I caved & bought a box of thin mints. Mmm.

* Rehersal & tech all afternoon & evening today...it would be really enjoyable if I didn't have these two papers hanging over my head.

...back to work...
