Finding the right incentive
Jun. 29th, 2018 05:55 pmEarly October: the next level German course does not run. I resolve to continue to work and to keep up the previous year's German.
Period since early October: I do next to no German
Yesterday evening: periodic check more in hope than expectation reveals that a WIP has updated for the first time since late August. Two new chapters! I switch off my light far too late, on account of reading German.*
Meanwhile, speaking of language learning in the interests of hobbies, it is the final episode of series four of The Bridge tonight! My colleague's husband had the temerity to ask her to wait to watch it with him when he comes back from the three week research trip he's left on today. Surely grounds for divorce! (She said no, obviously.)
*Badly.
