I passed my written and oral comprehensive exams! I’m now a doctoral candidate. Not pictured: Several hundred e-books, countless Coke ICEEs, blood, sweat, and tears.

Positively delighted to share the news that I will be attending William & Mary for my PhD! I know this has been a remarkably challenging application cycle for everyone, so I feel especially grateful for this dream opportunity. #firstgenstudent

For those of you who don’t know, I’ve been in a bit of a health scare. After a very stressful couple of weeks filled with surgery, biopsies, and weighing treatment options, I received word today that my autoimmune disease is currently in remission.

I gave Felicity a lecture about how Darnton is really important for researchers of early modern culture, but she’s still outraged about some of his source material..

My first big research trip to the British Library is coming up. Any recommendations on where to stay in London that would be convenient to both the Library and sightseeing? Trying to stretch a generous fellowship as far as possible, so affordability is helpful!

Charlie Dent (on CNN) just referred to Trump’s indecision as “ADD.” Neurodivergent folks can hear your disregard for us loudly and clearly when you falsely use our daily reality as a synonym for the erratic behavior of a demagogue. We’re suffering so much in this pandemic. Stop.

@Lady_Historian The ability to research well. Compiling research findings coherently, i.e. organization and argumentation. In my grading, I often find that I can recognize a history major before they even tell me their majors, because most of them have excellent writing skills.

Wednesday afternoon we went to walk the Stations of the Cross. It was relatively empty (and we’re now fully 💉) so I was able to walk inside Holy Hill for the first time. I haven’t been in a church for just over a year now, so this was a pleasant reintroduction to sacred space.
