*sigh*

Yesterday, Dr B sent out an e-mail explaining, basically, that he'd *changed his mind* about how he wanted the referencing done. I wasn't sure that was what he'd meant, so I asked. But I was wrong, silly me. *eye roll*

he wants them to look just like they do in a published volume of Historical Archaeology. Of course, we should all belong to our professional society, so, of course we all have these just lying around the house. *eye roll*

Mind you, I did join SHA, for the conference discount basically... But I don't have any stuff from them :p It's only a quarterly journal. *eye roll*

I could/should finish this paper tonight. But I've been working on it for 12 hours now and I'm starting to really run out of steam. Maybe I will go back and write the story part. That will be easier, and maybe it will refresh my interest. I wish I had something I could do that was non computer-y for an hour or so... maybe even get out of the house. Then I could come back and get it all done. Well, except the bibliography, since I'm still not 100% sure how to go about doing that. :p

Bubble bath! I suggest a bubble bath! And pictures! Pictures of you in the bubble bath! I don't how you would get the pictures but you should have pictures!

(I'm bored and somewhat silly - possibly a little horny)

this is probably daft but the bibliography programme i used to use (endnote it was called) used to allow you to auto format references to a given style, mostly journal types, perhaps settings for non-science journals exist for similar programmes to save you having to look it up

checked it out and while there is a set of anthropology journal styles, there doesnt appear to be a historical antiquities specifically, ah well

Really, it isn't a bad idea, but alas I think endnote is one of those programs you have to buy in order to really use :/ I have to go to the library tomorrow anyway; I'll just check it out then.

*sees other comment*: thanks for looking, though :)

I'm mostly annoyed that he is changing this now. I mean, technically he has already *marked* the papers. He's just an ass!

Did you hear I am going to be in Yorkshire for a bit? I am hoping to get to Sheffield for at least the Friday evening of Jan 7 :)

...I'm going to go make cupcakes! That makes everything better!

Whoa, careful. Keep rolling your eyes that much and they might unscrew themselves out of your skull. :)
