Am totally Sparknoting Antony and Cleopatra.

...Shutup. I read half. S'not my fault it's the longest bloody play in the universe. Also, I'm not a uni student. Really. I only pretend like I'm smart. And my neck hurts from reading too much. And I hate Shakespeare when it isn't performed by pretty men. In dresses. And nekkid. And the fish are annoying me. And it's too cloudy! And i'm sulking because the gypsies left.

...And yep, I'm out of excuses.

edit I've just realised, by complete accident, I'm pairing two tragedies and two comedies. And that Enobarbus and Iago are prettily opposite. So opposite, I'm starting to wonder if it's too obvious but eh. It means I can look for reason/love or loyalty/betrayal questions for A&C and Othello, leaving the illusion/reality angle open for Twelfth and Tempest. Quietly pleased. Now if I could just *read* all the damn critical stuff...

edit oh and meant to say that if anyone has anything interesting they know about any of the four plays, I need all the help i can get, so unburden your Shakespeare knowledge to me! Please.

Parents just texted me *from America* to say good luck for tomorrow. Which has only made me more nervous. Crap.

On the plus side, reading about sodomy. I'm still mentally childish enough to be amused by that counting as academic work.

Oh god. I don't *know* anything.
