Hm

So I asked Metafilter about class and socioeconomic status yesterday. Not theoretically, either: I was pretty direct about where I was coming from and openly curious about other people and their thoughts.

( thoughts behind the cut )

So. I don't know. I'm sitting thoughtfully right now and putting my thoughts here rather than there. I'm not feeling much in the way of personal emotion, just intellectual interest. But I had thoughts, and I figured this was probably the place to have them without distorting the entire conversation around me.

one set of manuscript edits done for the moment! tomorrow: set two!

ahahahaha. On the other hand, D&D campaign has been going very well indeed--today involved our helpful orc/human barbarian aggressively flirting with our tiefling bard, who was tipsy and flirting just as aggressively back. The apparently clueless baby druid asked what they were talking about, horrifying two other party members into actively fleeing the room as they explained increasingly more explicitly, and I think all players spent some time laughing their diaphragms out over it.

I am very very late on the second set of manuscript edits and also the other thing I need to do tomorrow, but I edited the one that's actually my thesis work today and sent it off to my boss, so that is a Net Win. Victory! \o/
