Tuesdays are the most important days for my internship. While I meet with Dr. Anderson late Thursday afternoon, Tuesdays are dedicated solely to work on my projects with Mr. Dieterly in the archives. Today I looked through newspaper entries from 1863. I haven’t seen any movies in a while, save for Blumhouse’s Night Swim (which wasn’t very good, as mentioned before). There aren’t really any movies of note playing in cinemas at the moment, which is a real shame. I received kudos from Dr. Rhodes, which cheered me up somewhat, but overall I wouldn’t say things are going particularly well. My mood is still sour, and I feel like I’m just barely holding on. At least I’m not sick today.
Oh, Dr. Lempa’s stuff. So, I ended up returning a copy of Doctors, Honour, and the Law (Maehle, 2009) to the library for him, and I checked it out for myself. I also got a copy of Wehler’s The German Empire. I still need to give my copy of Goldberg back to him, though. It keeps slipping my mind unfortunately.
I’ve been struggling with worldbuilding. My energy is devoted to other matters, both academic and social. Besides, what point is there to it when it’ll never be enough? I’ve been feeling that a lot recently, that nothing I put my mind to will ever be enough. Even this blog isn’t enough; hell, it’s barely a blog.
