Sorry Pangloss, after I made that post I tabbed back into Wordpad and kept writing. I had to write a primary source analysis on the story 'Jamila', by Chingiz Aitmatov. He's a Kyrgyz author, and it was a love story set during WWII in a farming village in what is now Kyrgyzstan. It was actually a very touching love story.
I ended up writing about how the villagers were influenced by nomadic traditions, by Islam, and by the Soviet regime, and in particular how the main character represented a Kyrgyz take on the 'New Soviet Woman'. Thank you for the offer anyway. |

Still early doors here...
Although I should be home feeding my poor cats instead of here (meh - they have enough beebles to live on, and chicken dinner when I finally get home!) I'd just rather not come in early to finish the references & footnotes I have to add to training notes. And flicking from work to here is keeping me sane.

I made a promise to have a computer ready to travel for a salesman, and I ran into several problems getting the computer ready. It took me this long to keep the promise.
What I lack in brillance I make up for in perserverance.

I am one of the few people out there that opiates make very hyper.
Pain = sleepless. Either I can't sleep because I hurt or because I took my meds. |
