Brother Gregor never spoke and often spooked the neophytes with his appearance, but he was a gentle soul and a phenomenal cook and knew more ways to prepare a fish than the abbot knew hymns

It's 'planning for fall semester' time at my university and I once again have reason to feel hope and joy. I will be taking a normal number of courses. Living in a nice place in the vicinity of my fencing friends. Obtaining new and valuable skills at the job. Undertaking new translation projects. Studying abroad perchance.

My schedule is going to be Workable and Fun and I have So Much to look forward to. Mayhap I have been under too much stress this semester and knowing that it shall get better has prompted me to acknowledge that. But until then, I am going to make it through this year etc.

part of a 10th century Byzantine poem talking about ancient greek literature :')

The long passage of time has scattered texts, like flowers, everywhere about the earth. Blossoming, they did not transmit their sweet-smelling grace. But now, crowned well by them, Konstantinos plucked some and, composing melodious musical poetry, set an enchanting aroma and fragrant texts before all who partake of higher culture. Let us wreath him with our words, that lover of words.

Alas and alack I cannot read the novel-length Lessing fanfiction until I write the 15-page Mendelssohn/Herdwe/Deleuze term paper...

Keiko swims with a pod of Ichthyotitan severnensis, a truly gigantic shastasaurid icthyosaur which lived about 205-202 million years ago at the end of the Triassic of what is now southern England and at 25 meters long is possibly the single largest Mesozoic marine reptile ever discovered, in her mermaid form.
