kareina | a quick bit of bragging

I am currently at the conference: Grave Concerns: Death, Landscape and Locality in Medieval Society, in Durham, where I submitted a poster describing my research in progress. They had a poster contest, which I figured I had no chance at, since this is my first ever conference as an Archaeologist. Much to my delight I won second place! They let me choose a book from the sale table, so I selected Maritime Societies of the Viking and Medieval World, which was the one that most closely related to my research project. I am looking forward to reading it.

Somehow I am not as sad about leaving Cudgel War early to attend the conference as I had been. (Cudgel was amazing! I really look forward to typing up a report on that soon, but it is already after midnight and the conference starts again at 09:30, so I had better do my yoga and get to bed...)
