Further evidence of insanity

[dreamer_easy]

I've signed up for a summer class in Akkadian. A week and a half of January mornings studying the cuneiform language of ancient Babylon. Now that's my idea of fun!!!

Very surprised at other peoples' interest in cuneiform! It's on at Macquarie University - officially applications have closed, but they very kindly allowed me to sign up after the deadline. Here's the Web page.

It doesn't look like Ye Olde Distance Education is available for the course, if that's what you're after - there is a $AUD40 textbook if you're interested in that, tho.
