Lancastrian interlude

[na_lon]

Today was my first day teaching in Lancaster after the break. It was actually surprisingly nice, despite the digustingly early start.

On the way to L. I did some reading for the CDLT assignment. Then I did the session with the first group. It was nice to see them again, actually. After the session, I went to the library to look for some stuff to read for the assignment, but didn't get very far. However, slightly later on, when I went to Teacher's office to ask her about sending me a reference, she mentioned a few texts to me and I had a few more ideas.

Then the second session -- the students actually cheered when I told them that they were stuck with me for another semester! Afterwards, I picked up another couple of books from the library and then headed slowly to the train. I'd misremembered the train times, and so missed it by a few moments (cause I faffed around in L. and had a look in a shoe shop (nowt really interesting).

As a consequence of the missed train I had to wait around for about 40 minutes. I was too tired to work on my assignment and instead did a little bit of creative writing set after the events in the now completed emither with pellegrina. I'd like to get that finished soon and typed up to add to the list of Game-based fic. But since I got home, I have just watched some TV and written half a sentence.

Anyway. I think I'll just have to give up for today and go to bed... I am soooo tired. Tomorrow I have assignment to work on and another issues meeting with Lala. Blah. Repeat after me: Got to get that CV sorted, got to get that CV sorted...

Many thanks! 'Mither' rings a bell... it sounds faintly Northern or Midlands to me (a soft Southerner). Meaning something like 'go on and on about.'

That sounds like us, yes. And eudesia is from Lincs., so I guess that fits too.
