I did 25 pages of Wilhelmine. Only 170 to go. You must yell at me to read more this weekend so we can move on to Lehndorff and MT! Also, if I start taking too long and you want to do a Blanning readalong while you wait, I'm game. Or if you get impatient and want to start Lehndorff, I can do Wilhelmine and Lehndorff simultaneously. Just let me know what you want.
cahn, I must warn you, woooow the English version of Wilhelmine's memoirs is bowdlerized. Sometimes it's obvious why, but sometimes I really can't tell--it seems like some random court intrigue that's no worse than most of the others. Otoh, I'm very rarely checking the translation now, so maybe more intrigues are cut than I realize. ;)
Also: I'm very rarely checking the translation now, zomg. :D
Bad news: I owe people comments and emails, and will try to get to them this weekend, but computer time was severely limited today due to a flare-up, and might continue to be limited this weekend. :/ If you don't hear from me, that's why. I even think I would have done more Wilhelmine today if I hadn't been going oowww the whole time. :( (Oh, it occurs to me that does affect my turnaround time on translations: I haven't prepared Lehndorff yet, much less MT. :/)
Good news
