Ancient Poetry

I'm having the most interesting boring day. I've done almost nothing, apart from sit at my desk, drink tea, listen to music, eat lunch, add to my amazon wishlist, and talk to Barb. I've been poking around on amazon, and I found the complete first season of the Muppet Show on DVD. It won't be released until August, so I preordered it. I love the muppets and am vera excited to watch the episodes. Perhaps I'll experiment with puppet building again.

I added to my wishlist some games that I'd like to play sooner or later, some comics that might be interesting and A Guide to Old English and A Concise Anglo-Saxon Dictionary. I'm interested in language, especially English, but I don't really have the patience to learn one. However, I thought these would be great reference books for studying old poetry and tracing words. I also added a copy of Beowulf, the Poetic and Prose Eddas and Gilgamesh (because I've never read the story).
