Livejournal is making me extremely self-conscious because I know half the time I post it's to whine about something or to brag about something. I need to have more interesting things to write about, but it's the end of the semester and they have thoroughly fried my brain.
That said, at least it's bragging this time around:
Someone has told the entire faculty that I got an article published. Augh, embarrassing! (No; embarrassing is discovering that you accidentally referred to someone by their first name instead of their last name on the first page of said published article. Augh).
And I have been nominated for that sweet best-research-proposal award. The one that I said that I was too fed up and tired to worry about.
(I must note for the benefit of those who knew me in high school that I wasn't being self-deprecating when I said I totally didn't expect to win anything. I am smart, okay; but in the SILS program I am surrounded by people at least as smart as I am. Little fish in big pond of supergenius fish).
1 out of 3 presentations taken care of. Up this afternoon, a user study of archival finding aids, followed by Jean-Francois Champollion and the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs tomorrow.
