Was girlarchaeologist on the ladyblog. Archaeologist turned museum worker. Cat lady. I post about archaeology and history in movies and tv, along with a hearty sprinkling of cats, otters, penguins, Doctor Who, comics, cemeteries, random photos and sundry and assorted thoughts.

I have another blog, travelswithmyastromech.tumblr.com, where I post peculiar little photos of Star Wars figures. Everyone needs a hobby.

Look what I have done to myself.  My back was ratched, so I put a hot water bottle on it, even though it’s a zillion degress, because heat helps the soreness.  Except today I applied a bit too much heat, and now I have burns and a blister on my back.  You’d think I’d notice this happening, but no.  Everyone has a skill, and hurting myself in stupid and improbable ways is mine.
My mother was griping at me about how stupid this was.  Trust me, I know.
