reassigned!

I've just been reassigned! I am no longer working with Dr. Corbin. Instead, I'm working with Dr. Don Parkerson, about whom I know nothing and who I can find no info about on the history dept. site. Apparently he is a great guy. I guess I am now 'a marker' (arccording to Dr. Corbin), although I think it is more of a general TA thing. I'll be helping with an American History class (buh?) and a Historiography class (keen!). The reason for the reassignment is that the guy who was supposed to be his assistant is in a fieldschool, and really can't be available for what he needs to do. I'm not sure (and neither is Dr. Corbin) why *I* was picked, but, whatever. I'm dissapointed that I won't get a chance to have interesting projects to work on, a bit, but the teaching experience will also be useful.

I just e-mailed him, so I will see when I hear back, I guess. I thought I was supposed to be doing work today, but it looks like not... Guess I'll go read more Castex (wooh!) until I have my French translation test at 1:00...

Castex makes me think of casse-tête.
