If I ever express the determination to get a PhD, punch me. God, writing a thesis sucks. Would someone please explain to me what the hell is the sodding point of changing a period in the bibliography into a coma in the footnote? Why is this asinine punctuation so important? It's not like it's grammatically relevant. It doesn't give the reader any

I hear over in ecclescult that CE shows up in a scene with a waistcoat. I think I melted in my chair a bit.

You heard right, my friend. There is a waistcoat. It is purple. He looks...rather on the dashing side in it, although admittedly it's not my favorite look of his. In the movie, definitely. Overall, eh.

I'm sorry the thesis is giving you trouble. Citations are hell, especially. There's so many different formats and I never get them right, no matter what I do.

Mmm. I'm still not sure that I'm going to run out to see this, though. I might wait until it gets to the cheap theatre. Or I might give in. I'm not sure.

It's actually going a lot more smoothly than I expected. And by smooth I mean horribly convoluted with little details that need double checking all over the place. But better than the other Aztec religion ones I wrote.

Ugh, citations are really ridiculous in their tiny little details that are absolutely crucial you get right, for no apparent reason. With luck you may end up memorizing the correct way to do them, so at least you won't have to worry about that.

Getting clothes as presents is almost uniformly awful. I remember last Christmas, Mom got me this truly unpleasant pink sweater. Pink! Not that I expect you to know this, but I never wear pink. Mom said it was purple. She was wrong.

Hee, well, if you decide you want to suffer through go see GI Joe, I say wait until you can do it as cheaply as possible. Yeah, CE may look pretty sleek, but in hardly enough scenes to make it all that worthwhile.

The bio of Norfolk IV sounds pretty cool. Let me know how it is, and if you find out anything interesting.

They're awful. Who invented these things? *throws evil eye* I've got the Chicago style miniguide onscreen half the time just to rememebr where a coma goes.

I hate it so much. Last Christmas, all I got was clothes. All awful. *sigh* At least dad decided to give me money afterward to make up for them. Ugh, I hate pink, too. I never wear it, either. I don't even like seeing it on other people, which gets problematic.

I'll probably wait till the cheap theatre. Or perhaps until I can have free use of a fast forward button.

The title is Tudor Tragedy, which already gives me an idea about the angle the biographer is taking. And part of his life was tragic. His three wives all died in childbirth. That's harsh.
