Ugh. I can barely keep my eyes open, and why? Because I got into it with someone on the Internet last night. The number of subjects that can still get me wound up like that has steadily diminished over time, but I guess the claim that a woman is "stuck-up" (does anyone not still in junior high really use that word?) because she won't entertain inappropriate propositions from socially-awkward guys is one of them. It's so hard not to despair every time I see this come up.
Or maybe that's only part of it and part of it was hearing from Father Medlar again after a couple years of silence. (He told me![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
monshu's last communication to him consisted of a card with the inscription, "WRITE, DAMN YOU!") He called before 8 p.m. and yet still managed to miss the Old Man, so I hope they're chattering away as I type this. I kept him on the line for the better part of an hour, learning about the goings on at the Abbey and among the motley crew of characters we met when out there for his ordination.
If history is any guide, I'll perk up for my German lesson tonight. I think we're doing strong verbs. I hope so, because I went through the trouble of reviewing them last week after getting the past participle of heissen wrong. I was much relieved by the discovery that it's basically in a class unto itself (being a relic of the Old Germanic class of reduplicating verbs.
