I haven't posted yet today, but I have done some work? I already read and poked at a bunch of the Holroyd biography of Strachey, and plan to finish poking at it later today.

To-Do:

1) Begin poking at Holroyd biography
2) Finish poking at Holroyd biography
3) If possible check out Lytton Strachey By Himself: A Self-Portrait
4) Walk the dogs in the afternoon
5) Go out to supper with dad & stepmom
6) Transcribe/take notes on Holroyd
7) Start writing down musings on Strachey

I'm feeling actually really good about my Strachey chapter at the moment; though I'm at a bit of a disadvantage in that I'm missing a few books I need that I didn't know I'd need, I've got a bunch of ideas and things are starting to come together for me. I'm really excited to write/rewrite the section on Strachey-Voltaire-Frederick the Great, for example, as I already liked it when I wrote it before and now I have even more exciting ideas about it. So even though this week is dedicated primarily to reading and researching Strachey stuff, I'm getting a jump start on brainstorming, just because, you know, BRAINS. So that's good! Maybe I can write a dissertation you guys!
