Did write about 800-850 words of Big Damn Essay[1] out of guilt. Not the best words I've ever written, but also not the worst, and it did get me started. Have written out a preliminary structure that I'll probably try to comunicate with my director[2] tomorrow, or early next week. Because it would be nice to know if she thinks it would be doable before I get too deply mired in it.
[1] Yes, that's what I'll call it from now on. Possibly BDE when I'm feeling lazy.
[2] I want to write "handler"... but I'm not quite far enough into BDE-insanity yet to require a keeper. It's just that the Swedish word is "handledare" - false cognates and all that.[3]
[3] Or an actual cognate for all I know, they could very well have the same root, it just sounded funner[4] than "mistranslation".
[4] I never use this word, if indeed is is a real word, because it doesn't soud like a real word. So I use funnier, which means something else, though related, because by the time I get past fun- and have to decide how to end the word, it's allready too late to change it to "more fun".[5]
[5] Yes, I am in fact rambling, how did you know?
