Dissertation

I’m writing a dissertation about isolationist rhetoric. I could get an entire thesis out of dissecting isolationist policy. I could spend the rest of my life going on and on about the universal theory of justice.
Did you know, the province of Gorizia has a Gothic cathedral and a 16th century fortress? And I swear the picture of Niccolò Machiavelli on the cover of my copy of "The Prince" (which is a photo of a portrait of him by Santi di Tito) looks like it’s mocking me.
I also have no intention of sleeping till I reach a certain word-count.
06:41
Fuck it. Almost wrote ‘arse’ instead of ‘arise’ and seem to have lost the ability to spell ‘whether’, problematic since ‘whether’ is among favourite words. Example of another favourite word is ‘dirigible’, unfortunately absolutely no use for it in dissertation.
Going to bed for a couple of hours.
12:12
Awake. Daylight going on. Not sure can cope with it. Dissertation looking slightly more entertaining after having slept. Tonsils breaking down though as well as one of right toes for some reason. Bizare.
Also losing pronouns; blame TV adaptation of "Gormenghast" for this, particularly character of Flay as played by the exceptional Christopher Lee.
