Several things make a post
Jan. 12th, 2021 10:52 pmWe are spending this week moving my office to the spare bedroom and the spare bedroom to my office, for Reasons. Which partly involve being able to keep our respective offices quieter when we're both working (they currently share a very thin wall), and partly a better arrangement to house all my stuff.
Also D. Va has learned to open our bathroom door so now there are two cats to give us no privacy.
I was doing a bit of writing on The Thing Part 2 (see posts from last year moaning about The Thing I wrote), and ended up trying to search for stuff on men shaving in the Renaissance and early modern era--mostly, would anyone carry a personal shaving kit with them and if so what would it look like? I could find no results, just lots of stuff on the New Renaissance in Beards Today and pages informing me that 17th century men thought facial hair was awesome and had it. Arg. If any of you can dig up a page, perhaps from a history museum, that shows a personal shaving kit from, oh, anytime between 1450-1699, that'd be aces.
I have slowed my Warhammer read because every time I start a book I can't set it back down to do other things until I finish it, so I am leaving the last two books in the Gaunt's Ghost series as a reward for getting the Thing Part 2 draft done.
I'd attach photos of the cats, who have been adorable recently, but I'm on my laptop in the media room until we get my office shifted, and it's harder to deal with Photoshop this way than it is when I've got monitors plugged in, a proper keyboard, and a table on which to rest my hands.
Aaaargh I have, like, four emails I haven't yet replied to....
