Hmm ... so I'm sitting here trying to download stuff off the library's online journals, feeling a bit better now - I was not happy when I came in 'cause my throat was a bit sore ... for which I blame Sean! He is sick, therefore it is his fault that I'm sick! I told him not to kiss me and occasionally even had the willpower to remember and enforce it ... very occasionally, and now I begin to pay for my spinelessness...
In other news, Elsevier is being bloody annoying and taking forever and JSTOR is doing bugger all!
However, the good news is that I have Ofer Bar-Yosef's email address and will now be able to email him and ask him for references! Or pdfs.
In other news I will be going to Germany for six weeks in June. Please don't tell me that June doesn't have six weeks - I know that and you know perfectly well that I meant my six weeks would be starting in June! Sean's not entirely thrilled with this, but I've promised to bring him chocolate, so I think he's slightly appeased. But, you have been warned to expect moaning and unhappiness ... and if you don't get it I want to know why!{angry}
AND there's a LARP this weekend :-D AND another LARP next weekend :-D ... So ... Isobel this weekend and Greer next weekend (assuming of course, that Tim and david haven't changed my name like those IoFW? bastards did! Although, to be fair I am willing to concede that Sha're is not exactly appropriate for where I was born ... not that that was where I wanted to have been born either!)
Speaking of which, I noticed that in the bit where they were talking about principal players, they said "Andi" instead of "Isobel" at one point. Not that I know an Andi, but it's what they insist on calling me! {angry} If only they would realise that my name is Andrea. Or Andy. Or, if they must, Andie. But categorically NOT Andi!
or fuzzy's...i'm point fingers about the spelling of your name now.
okay Andi? ;-)
fight it! I find it best to never to mispell your name yourself (e.g. in reference to a misspelling), the doofuses just assume that since you've typed it, it might just be okay
a handy, permanent web reference? to the acceptable spellings can help - also a pointedly descriptive moniker :-) - although DefyEndingWithJustAnI? doesn't have quite the same ring...
You were the one kissing me, don't go blaming me for your evil, I said "no I'm sick" and then you told me to shut up and stop moaning.
