"Thus men may grow wiser every day," as Touchstone says, & today that is a new word:
cavillation, n. a sophistic excuse, or false technicality.
It's really just fun to say. Try it. Go on. Thank you, Mr. Raphael Holinshed. Yes, we're reading Holinshed (could my English class get better? I doubt it) & I am writing my paper on Macbeth & the witches, which means I get to read King James' demonology texts, & argue with Orgel (ha, say that out loud too) some more.
The play opens Thursday, with a preview tomorrow night. I feel both not ready at all, & readier than I will ever be (which, I have found, is how I often feel about things that happen at exactly the right time. It's a mixture of forward-looking excitement & vague terror, which is probably healthy as such things go).
I should really do something physical soon. Not working out is getting to me. Maybe if I get all my reading done this afternoon (a distinct possibility, though I am behind from skipping history--the nap was awesome, though) I will go do something tonight. Unless Nikki & I go exploring in places we're not supposed to...also a distinct possibility. Hmm.
(Ha! "Sore"--"I got stabbed! Right here!")
