Tell me why I don't like Mondays
Feb. 4th, 2008 10:22 amThe problem with reading scholarly books at a time when other people go to bed is that the reader herself also tends to fall asleep, regardless of how fascinating said scholarly book is.
Except for work on Saturday (gags), I had a nice weekend. I finally watched Doctor Who with my parents, since it was on German TV. I actually didn't mind the dubbing that much, which surprised me, but it was a sanitized version: Everything which even slightly hinted at people being killed (or walking around dead) was cut. Why, I ask you, why? Are German children not allowed to be deliciously scared and hiding behind sofas? Bah.
I'm almost finished with one-and-a-half short stories. Why is it that I never manage to stick to deadlines?
