Today I got some fantastic climbing in: a few of the usual routes climbed, a few of the usual routes fallen off of, but two challenging V0s that I hadn't been able to manage on several previous attempts finally cleared. And on my first try of the day with each, too!
Today I finished all my Greek homework in record time, if perhaps not to record standards. We've reached the end of the Antiphon speech, so it's one more day of covering it in class, a day of review (and lecture on homicide law in Athens), and then the test--and then, finally, we're moving onto Lysias. Not a dreadfully interesting Lysias speech, in the sense that it's not new in content to me, so I won't be discovering any exciting new premise while reading it, but still! Moving away from Antiphon for a bit!
Today Steam released Psychonauts--what's one of the best platformers of all time, according to a lot of reviewers--for the Mac, with what looks to be pretty decent ported controls, and a reportedly less-insanely-difficult final level. I ran through the intro, and it's pretty cool; I'm looking forward to playing a lot more of it.
Today I had a great time talking with people about writing (and bad movies, and slush piles, and I think I used a truly terrible spaghetti metaphor in there somewhere) and got all sorts of fired up to finally do that big choppy next revision on the Czenik story so that it'll be ready for one final content revision, and then the proper line edit.
Sadly, tomorrow I have a Latin quiz that I am deeply unprepared for, and I should spend all of this evening and tomorrow morning studying for it. So. No writing, no Psychonauts, no random cooking shows on Hulu with Gordon Ramsay shouting at hapless chefs... Livy. Lots and lots of Livy. All night long.
Bah.
