ILU, OED

I love you, Oxford English Dictionary!

I'm so lucky my wife works at a University and can get me into the OED online. It's so incredibly useful. I'm working on some annotations for [livejournal.com profile] janeturenne's Slasher's Annotated Sherlock Holmes, which is already so darn awesome. I'm doing "The Six Napoleons," and I'm LOVING IT, I tell you. Can I be a professional fan? This is why I went into English Lit in school, by the way, because what I do for fun is try to figure out why such-and-such fictitious character used this phrase instead of that one.

Poor Mr. Rochester never gets his icon used *uses it*

I love the OED so hard.
