Middle English!

Today's Interesting Fact:

Ever wonder why go and went are so dissimilar? It's because the came from two different words. Go came from a Middle English word gon, while went is the past tense form of the word wend which came from the Middle English word wenden - which also means to go or proceed.

I *heart* linguistics.

Other things I've learned to-day:

I can do Mathematical Foundations for Informatics in my sleep. And I mean this almost literary, as during 95% of the class, "Tile is pretty!" and was able to do the excercizes at the end with no problem.

I'm allergic to either iodine or bidodine. Not too badly, but I broke out a little where I got swabbed.

Swabbed for what? Giving blood, as I finally was not anemic. That was an interesting non-event, as the only thing that hurt was when the needel when in for the first time, but that could have been the sting of the whole allergic reaction thing. Angela the flembologist told me to squeeze the ball thing every three to five seconds, so for a bit I counted until I realized that my foot could keep time just as well, so I hummed songs covered by John Barrowman.

I would have song them, except I can't remember enough of them to do so.

Though I'm very, very sleepy and just want to watch Heroes and go to sleep. And put on fuzzy socks as my feet are ice cold. I am quite possibly a little punch drunk.

Not much squee, but I want to see a Claude and Peter road trip.

( Because )

Though no one has actually called him Claude yet.
