Accomplishment!

So far today, I have:

1. Read some Alexis de Tocqueville

2. Signed up to play on a softball team

3. Gotten semi-lost in some semi-woods

4. Seen a hawk (in the semi-woods)

5. Walked on a trail around the still fairly frozen lake

6. Bought a sweet book about Edward VI (my second-favorite Tudor!) for $3

we need to talk. I don't understand what's so great about Edward VI. I mean, he was a big deal when he was born, but then he went and died of tuberculosis before he could really do anything. Also, it amuses me that your lake is still semi-frozen...whereas I'm already starting to miss Dumbo's air conditioner.

Short answer: if he had lived, he probably would have been really awesome. And even at such a young age, he was already writing some really hilarious stuff about the Pope being the anti-Christ. Such a precocious lad.

WHOA.

Eddy6 second fave? That would make H7 your top, and then you skip over ELIZABETH-THE-AWESOMEST to Eddy? And what about Harry? Oh, and Mary? No wait but Edward is sooooo cool....

Great. Now I'm in a world of confusion because I can't name a Tudor order. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME????
