I'm done with bibliographies for days. Days, I tell you! I might have small lists of books during those days, but nothing longer than a half page and nothing quite as complex. Also, nothing that will have such ramifications if I muck it up.
This afternoon is going to be either dedicated to BiblioBuffet or lost in the land of the DVD. I'm assuming I shall stay awake the whole afternoon and that the virus is in abeyance, for I am a worker of miracles today, having finally done all the impossible bits of the most annoying bibliography this year*.
Anyhow, my brain is returning to its usual state and I shall soon be much less boring as a result.
All my Canberra friends have socialised without me this weekend. I guess it's just as well, but if any of them** complain that I never have a social life, ask me when we last went to movies together***.
I'm adding a line, just because****
* My biggest problem of the moment is that I think it's too short: no doubt I will hear back if it is and face it all again.
** Of whom some are you and reading this
***I would very much like to go to a movie today, but can't, or on Tuesday, which might be possible. It is a very, very long time since I've done anything as radical as see a new movie. Mind you, it's even longer since I've gone to a concert, because they're at night and not easily accessible by public transport in Canberra, which makes them almost impossible for me. One day, my concert-going habits will return.
****The 'because' is quite simply that I have the perfect opportunity to write a post where the footnotes are longer and contain more content than the post itself. All I needed was one more footnote and to adjust the space a little. If I could do things like this in dissertations, the bibliography wouldn't be nearly as much of a pain. In fact, it would be rather fun, for I could use Comic Sans 13 point and annoy people. Right now it's Times New Roman 12 point and sadly serious.*****
*****I think quite a few people will be relieved when I'm writing fiction again.
