So I was reading my book, Fatal Purity, the biography of Maximilien Robespierre, and I came across Eleonore Duplay, the woman who was allegedly engaged to him. There's not a lot about her in the book, so I poke around online. I stumble across a livejournal user "Eleonore Duplay", whose lj is written from the point of view of the Veuve Robespierre (Widow Robespierre) herself. Then, I see this person is in the group known as historical_love, a group dedicated to historical crushes. My first instinct was "oh my freaking god I must get in on this". Then, I realized, there are actually people out there who started this group who are not me. This is a good thing! I am not as weird as I thought I was! Yay! I may still join the group of course... their motto is "it's not necrophilia... it's historical love!" I'm still kind of in shock. I'm kind of "I wish I thought of that" and kind of "holy crap that's a sickness". Oy Oy Oy.
On another note, I just got a 145.5 on a practice AMC. Yes, that is 24 right and 1 omit. And I'm not giving up on that last question! Never!!
