Subtitled: Whew!

Nature of History, H217, is required for all History majors.  (Yes, I am a History major.  Please don't all ask at once if I'm going to teach).  Our term paper is eight pages on the historiography of any American movement, and I've chosen Elizabeth Cady Stanton, leader of the Woman's rights movement.  (The answer is no.  No, I am not going to teach).  The problem:  It is not eight pages.  It's sixteen pages.  Whoops.

What is historiography, you might ask?  It's comparing the way different historians treat a subject.  Fascinating, I know.  The class may just as well been called "How to write a history paper" and had the final word on the subject.

Also, kudos to the major cool guy who found my cousin's cell phone and returned it to her, after frantically calling friends and family to find out who it belonged to!!  That man is a class act, let's buy him a martini!
