Just another Monday in St. Louis. Garrett is studying and I am playing around on Facebook. While I play, I am listening to my favorite podcast.
They talk about obscure little bits of history that get skipped over in most general history classes. The stories are interesting, but not necessarily stories that would need to be covered in a regular history class. I think that the things that they talk about in the podcast are more trivia type tidbits. I find the stories fascinating! I feel like I keep learning even if I'm stuck at work. I've learned about the Boston Molasses Disaster of 1919, Catherine de'Medici, and even more on the House of Tudor. These are just a few of my favorites. I enjoyed learning about the House of Tudor before I heard this podcast, but after hearing the podcast I decided to reread, "The Other Boleyn Girl"
Also, I decided to start watching The Tudors
The book was even better the second time around and the TV series has me totally hooked. I am nearly done with the second season and I am pumped to continue watching, especially since I can watch them all instantly on Netflix!
As for school, I have everything ready. I was able to accomplish everything on my list with a whole day to spare! So now I get to spend the day doing whatever I want. I wonder what I will do...
Until Next Time!
Lots of Love!!
