Hi, my name is Vivien, and I'm a Milliways-oholic

I am in awe of all of you people. I'll have you know that I did the following yesterday night to enjoy your (prolific) briliiance:
- Forgot to eat dinner on class break
- Paid absolutely no attention to an important lecture that just went on and on and on
- Made a classmate and fellow teacher ask me what on earth I was doing on the computer (and there is really no way of explaining it in any way that doesn't make you sound like you're off your nut)
- Broke speed limits like a crazy woman on the drive home
- Ignored my poor husband for hours (but he watches baseball intently all summer, so not having much guilt there :P)
- Continued to forget to eat dinner
- Plotted how to weasel out of a weekly girl's night (I'm coming [livejournal.com profile] pirate_jack and I just may trade the mocking for the laptop ;)
- Wondered just how much of my sanity will be left after a while of this
- Woke up really early cos I was starving from the whole forgetting to eat thing.

Ah, the sacrifices we make for that which we love ;) And I do want to publicly say to [livejournal.com profile] iopenthings that you are incredibly fun and very talented and you so surprised me with Door last night, and that all makes writing Tom that much more interesting and pleasurable.

But I loff you all! And I love being an irresponsible adult! Huzzah!

:) We are a large and unwieldy group. Someday we shall rule the universe, and make everyone read our obscure theories!

Hear hear!

(Wonder how many different periods and locations of history we have represented at Milliways? I know the classicists are here in force... I do the Middle Ages in England...)

My senior thesis was on the Puritans and astrology, so, seventeenth century New England. And yeah, the classicists are making me drag out my old Norton anthologies, trying desperately to remember who's who... :)
