Woohoo! I have just finished uploaded edited versions of the nine articles I had to read while at FHL, and send a summary of my comments to my co-editors. That was a marathon ten days, during which I edited another article (I'll be paid for that one, though), but now I'm done! ADC also finished writing his article, up to and including figure ( Read more... )

Good for you!

A marathon state of mind was what I need and fail to get last weekend.

I'm a little "depressed" because I really wanted to go to the The American Educational Research Association (AERA) annual meeting. I just need to submit a small 2000 words article. I left it for last minute, I was suppoussed to work on it during my mini holidays and then send it for proofreading. I relax too much and didn't manage to have it on time. It's all my fault. AERA anual meeting is sort of the Lolapalloza festival for educational researchers and I hate myself a little for relaxing too much with the article and having left it to the last minute.

I am not usually this efficient, I think it was the knowledge that anything that was not done at Friday Harbor wouldn't get done until well after I got back to Israel that kept me focussed.

I do hope you have other opportunities to go to AERA - it sounds like the equivalent of the International Medieval Congress at Leeds for your field. I went to the IMC for the first time last year, just before coming to the US, and it was wonderful.

Medieval studies sounds incredible awsome.I can only imagine how fascinating it is to be a conference of this kind and the issues to be discussed.

I don't know much about it but the little that I have learn I enjoy it.
What I know about it is only "peasent" knowledge related only to my very dusty theology studies 20 years ago. I have also read a little, very little, about family and childhood studies in medieval times and I absolutly love it.
Tourist activities like Cluny museum and such are also a a great pleasure for me, I indulge in them every time I travel.
