Summer sloth

Progress on my reading pile is minimal… generally I work better with the incentive of exams or deadlines to keep me focused, but even by my standards it’s proving exceptionally difficult to get down to some work. Being pregnant is my excuse. I was expecting my brain not to be at its sharpest in the months after the birth, but surely it’s a bit early to be losing mental acuity? Let’s just call it laziness.

In the interests of making some progress, I’ve started work on the Pro Murena – partly to help switch back to Latin mode. Not so bad so far – my Latin will probably always be more fluent than my Greek – except that I keep reading all the semi-colons as question marks, which doesn’t help.
