Off to Skåne

[frualeydis]

Today I'm going to Skåne (extreme south of Sweden) again to give another lecture. The last one wasn't very good, at least I didn't think so. But it was one week after my viva and it was very hard to work on it. It will be much better next year.
One of the problems was that there was only five people there and very little response. I had no idea of whether they understood what I was talking about or not. Today I'm taking the safe route and will start with the very basics, assuming they know nothing about the subject; which is re-creators/re-enactor's and their image of the Middle Ages.

Well, even if it doesn't go well I can still look forward to meeting therru; I'm staying at her place.

It's raining and it's grey and I feel down, but I think it will get better as soon as I get to the university; i'm going to get dressed and go there now.

Skåne, also know as Scandia. Giving name to Scandinavia! :D I love the dialect(s) spoken there. Have a nice trip!

No, it's Scania, like the trucks.

Whooops, a D sneaked in there. Unintentional, I swear!

You're going to do fine, babe. You were absolutely exhausted last time, what with the viva, and your cold, and houseguests and everything. This time you'll do fine. (I'm sure you did last time too, you're always too hard on yourself.) I look forward to hearing about your talk when you get back.

If you write up your lecture, I'd love to read it.

Strange to read this when you are actually asleep (or soon to be) in the next room! :)
