Okay. I'm back.

And tired. Very, very tired.

Wonderful news - painless_j saw fit to include Primer to the Dark Arts, Beg Me For It and (surprisingly) Reunion among her birthday favourites.

Whee.

32 of 35 pages done on the other Great Big Project. Just finished all my citations for the "just how dangerous is China?" essay. Had to change them all to Chicago style.

Turabian/Chicago style is a most vexatious thing. My heart belongs to the MLA.
Unfortunately, I'm a history major, so I've been offered as a sacrifice to the evil gods of Turabian.
*shakes fist at historiography*

Once I used MSWord to piece it together I was happy with life again. :)

Here, here--! Historiography is what made me drop my history major...or, at least, it was the straw that broke the donkey's back. No, thanks, I'll stick with linguistics, even if it does require APA style...

(The irony here is that the term paper I wrote for my historiography class has been recommended to the campus Phi Alpha Nu publication. Which means I might be the only English major to get published by the history frat. :-D)

Now see, my mind turned Natalie's post into: shakes fist histrionically at historiography. I'm not sure if that should qualify me for linguistics or get me kicked out. :p

Depends on the sort--it's psychologically neat, but a diachronic linguist would dock you points for mixing etymologies. :-)
