I'm getting to the point where I can turn in most of the books I have checked out from the library. I have most of the paper written, but I need to put down the citations and beta the hell out of it. Comparing my paper to the dozens of drafts I drew up, my original effort would have netted me a small book.
Also, I have a bunch more books I have checked out for a completely different project. It's still on Welsh so now I have about half of the IU libraries books about the Welsh language living in my room. Only now it's books on grammar and initial consonant mutation and not social history books.
OH! And I'm giving a 20 minute presentation on verb inflection soon. So I have word lists of English verbs lying around too. But it's become clear to me I really love linguistics since I don't hate what I'm doing even though I'm thinking about it all the time. I'm still not sure what I can do with a linguistics degree, but I'm not regretting taking one.
