Reanimating Charles I

Well, I think I did much better on this mid term than the last one. At least I didn't run out of time in mid-sentence like last time. I was much less ambitious, just basically dryly regurgitating facts. Also, I think part of my problem last time was that I tried to do two drafts. This time, I simply made do with scribbled out words and sentence structures that aren't as polished as I'd like.

I love my computer.

And I love Caitlin R. Kiernan books. Here; they'll teach you how to love, too*;

Daughter of Hounds

Silk

Threshold

Low Red Moon

Murder of Angels

Tales of Pain and Wonder

Speaking of exuberant human hearts that have difficulty functioning in society, I made some icons today from the fourth episode of Zoku Sayonara Zetsubo Sensei (which I collected into a playlist here when I posted it in February). Other episodes would probably yield better icons. I kind of picked this one at random (the icon with the Japanese characters, by the way, says "The Heartless King");
