An Epic effort

And lo, did deralte vow to finish her essay,
despite her exhaustion from defeating two essays before,
and slaying the mighty Renaissance presentation,
and its child, the Archaeology practical (number 8).

Long did she struggle against the pull of fanfic,
forgoing food and water (except for chocolate),
and although she did falter, her eyes blurred,
leaving the essay unfinished at 5:30am.

Awakened abruptly at 10:30am by her flatmate,
she consoled herself with acetaminophen,
and wrote onwards, ever onwards. Til' day did pass,
and the essay was finished and submitted.

Sing praise for deralte, the victorious!
(and the really quite knackered).

Goals for the week

1) Get a new chapter of Uric out.
2) Work on, and perhaps finish Blackadder: The Pure-blood Years, romanoceltic fic and the demented lockhart fic.
3) Visit Fyre.
4) Read up on the Bakumatsu for fun.
5) Reread some Discworld novel. Doesn't matter which, but I'm leaning towards The Fifth Elephant.
6) Read lots of fanfic.
7) Ignore university as much as possible.
8) Work on webpage for job, so as not to lose aforementioned job.
9) Put up another chapter of Intersections on Schnoogle.
10) Revise all of Wild Hunt for sugarquill.
11) See X-Men 2.

Visited the Museum of Childhood on a whim today after dropping off essay. Lots of cool, antique toys there. Had a flashback to American Gods when I saw an old style penny display machine that showed a haunted house (ooo, scary...). Then stopped in an old fashioned sweet shop of the kind that would have Albus Dumbledore rolling over and begging. Really must remember to go back there with a notebook and copy down names of the sweets to have ready made passwords.

Uric meets Kenshin et co.

I'm blaming this one on tabellae:p Despite the fact that she's never even seen Kenshin, she encouraged me to write this. Should I send this to Obscurus Fics as well? Oh, and if you haven't seen Kenshin, most of this will make little sense, but there's no spoilers so feel free to read.
