How far through History have we got?
*looks out window* Oh, we're only at Sparta? Wake me up when it's time to behead Cromwell. *goes for a nap*

You can't take a nap in Sparta! Get your *** out of bed and go train with the rest of those military types. It's mandatory, dear. How else do you think they got those six packs in that movie 300?

Oooo. Don't behead Cromwell! If it weren't for Cromwell, my ancestor wouldn't have been shipped off to the Colonies with a couple hundred of his Brothers-in-Arms after the Battle of Worcester - and I wouldn't be here!

Oh wait, are we anywhere near 496BC? We Are?! Sorry, Sparta will have to do without me, I'm off to watch King Goujian of Yueh in battle. Far more interesting.

Don't worry OFG. Cromwell had been dead 3 years when they beheaded him.

It's so yesterday...history called; it wants its irrelevance back.

I hate job hunting and I hate stupid online companies who advertise for jobs already passed their expiry date. Freaking idiots. *covers her head with a blanket and snuggles into a quiet nap*

People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have a tremendous impact on history.
