And what was she, the fairy Melusine?

I got my official Birkbeck offer today. It made me happy. Am going to start on the reading list, possibly some of which in the original, soon. Once I find the reading list. Was hopelessly overprepared for the interview, but not so much that I convinced the interviewer I was a nutter who should not be allowed near a library. They let me in! (I still do not quite believe this). I know I have told almost all of you this already, but it is now official. The path of much doom does not lie before me. 

Anyone know how I could bleach my hair without it turning orange? It's dyed red at the moment, hence the risk of orange. 

Will post a more coherent update later.
