I've been silenced by a tummy bug today. Had the bug all week, but today got wiped out by it. I missed a housewarming party but all I want to do is go back to bed and sleep some more. Intelligent thoughts return again tomorrow, perhaps. Or perhaps teaching will be all I can accomplish. I spent my day in bed wondering why the single most common question asked by radio interviewers is "What are the most common mistakes writers make about the Middle Ages?"
