I'm not drunk...

I'm just more like myself.

Which is to say, I drank most of a bottle of wine, and blathered at people I barely know about Anglo-Saxon bishops. And then came home and emailed someone else about manuscript provenance.

Yes, yes, it's a whirlwind life I lead.
I predict another hour before I sober up and can go to bed. What shall i do in the meantime?

Kevin Rudd appoints female talking head.

I wonder if the current principal of Women's will smarm about this as she does over Mari Bashir? Or perhaps Quentin, as a previous and highly respected principal (and one who DIDN'T make a fool of her tipsy self at every formal occaision) isn't someone she wants us to remember?

I finally finished my table!

Nevermind that there's at least as big a table to make for the Latin section. Nevermind that I've yet to wrestle with the paelography. For now, I have, in 9 pages, a neat table of all the Anglo-Saxon texts of Nero A.i part B.

Surely I don't need to do anything for another month now?
