Good luck with the grant! How do you like the Canterbury tales? I don't remember much about them except that they were a bit raunchy, which is always fun. Plus I liked the movie, "A Knight's Tale."

eh, not liking it as much as I hoped. I apparently have the untranslated version which is a bit difficult to understand at times so I have to read the synopsis of the story beforehand. And so it is also taking me forever to get through it.
