Hubris…oh wonderful hubris

Tis the day before Christmas and all is….well bloody frustrating!   Whilst other sane people are preparing for their Christmas celebrations this poor sap thought it would be a great idea just to pull in some light archaeological reading.  Nothing says Christmas like a discussion of fine sand or granite inclusions in mid to late iron age pottery!

As with most of these documents I have to read them several times to fully understand them – a mixture of dyslexia and not being a trained archaeologist. – By the third run through I discovered that there was a document I should read and it has the potential to blow much of my work out of the water!

A months worth or writing and a couple years  of research could go up in smoke – or perhaps it could reinforce everything I had found out.  I just don’t know and won’t know until the New year.  Oh Hubris…what a wonderful gift for Christmas…ARRGGHH.

Oh the joys of being a drama queen…Merry Christmas everyone.  And remember keep away from all those archaeological reports this Christmas!

    Weird I know…but strangely I wasn’t thinking of reading any this Christmas!
