Your studies sound really neat. Yay linguistics!

Glad to hear you're doing well! I took a Linguistics class in undergrad and absolutely loved it. The units on slang and dialect were always my favorite. :)

Also, re: Thor, I present to you a picture of Eccleston in a three-piece suit. Because Monday!
