Caveat: Recordings in Akkadian

AkkadianIt turns out that some professors of ancient, extinct languages such as Babylonian, Assyrian and Akkadian (which are all related to each other and to modern Arabic and Hebrew) have decided to make voice recordings of Mesopotamian literature (including Gilgamesh!). These recordings are hosted at the University of Cambridge, here. I'm weird: I like this. I listen to them… without understanding them.

Meanwhile, I've been regretting the fact that I kind of dropped the ball on my efforts to develop an exercise routine, last fall. So starting today, I'm going to post a "daily log" as a footnote to my evening blog-post. Such as it were. I walked around part of the lake at the park, this evening, after work.

[Daily log: walking, 7 km; running, 1 km]
