Also, completely unrelated, my thesis adviser said I am an "indefatigable scholar" in a letter of support he wrote for me. It's my new favorite descriptor ever.
"Indefatigable" is just a wonderful word.
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

I can't tell if it's any good, yet, but it didn't totally suck right out of the gate, and that one scene with Kyle Secor and Angie Harmon discussing pleas was fun in a very meta way.
yeah, I don't hate it. I'm recording it next week, but I haven't season passed it yet.

Hey. New board.
Okay! I have choices. I am definitely wearing silky awesome black pants and my pretty black dress/dancin' shoes, but should I wear the white shirt (which would be ironed first) or the black shirt? Note my fine dance moves.

Black shirt.
Eta: Damn Suzi! That's a lot. I have, in contrast, put away a load of laundry I ran yesterday and started the dishwasher.

Gris, go black, choose black.
Holy cow, Suzi! Go you! I need to do laundry, but I don't wanna. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow.
So, hivemind, what is historical present tense? Google isn't really giving me the love.

Hey. New board.
Black shirt appears to be the nearly unanimous winner. And the lone white shirt voter changed her mind after remembering that I tend to spill on myself. So black it shall almost certainly be.
ETA: Historical present tense... um, maybe "And suddenly, she had won the game!"?

It's the present tense used for an event that has already happened, usually applied to things that are timeless, such as writing, "VW writes in her Nov. 1 post that...."

Hey. New board.
Oh, that makes much more sense. Cool!

Ok. Gotcha. It's the tense I'm supposed to use for the annotated bibliography. Burrell, you will be glad to know that I am learning with this exercise. Go figure.
ETA: But, I'm still not happy about it.
