You should see me when I teach Beowulf! I get all into it. And we read sagas and study longships and facetime with a museum in Iceland... That's why I fell in love with Ancient Lit. I read Beowulf in elementary and never looked back!

Wait.... I think maybe Beowulf instead of Macbeth was the one I read in middle or elementary! Haha I remember the movie too. Although I feel like I did read Macbeth at some point too so maybe high school? But they never got as into it as that! That’s amazing! I would love that haha

There’s a Beowolf book... mind blown Why didn’t I know this. I swear I feel dumb some days. I think every time I have surgery I lose memory I feel like I’m reliving my life again

Aww no you’re not! I think we maybe just watched the movie in school haha I wanna watch that one and Macbeth now

Did you know Lion King is based on Hamlet? Lol

Yes I know that... I saw the movie too for Beowolf. Just like Lord of the Rings... I always watch the movies first and I shouldn’t. The books are way better!

If you want feel free to make me a Read List... I’ll read every book! I’m really getting into reading I rarely go a day without reading a few hours. Some nights I stay up till midnight because I’m so into a book.

My problem is if I start most books for entertainment, I have to finish it in one sitting... even if I have read it before.
If I have read it 20 times I can put it down, otherwise I am up all night finishing it.
The Bible and reference books I can read part and think about what I have read.

@Aunt Angus im glad you’re back Did you get tested? That hurts!!!! I’ve been tested 3 times and next person who comes near me with a swab is going to have to catch me

I DID get tested - twice. Once to find out I had it, and once to find out I probably don't (it was inconclusive). It does hurt. More than I thought it would.
