I would just like to point out, to anyone who frequents this account, I am still reading & reviewing books. I'm just doing it on an actual blog, making me on the cutting edge of technology circa 2006. Huzzah?

Anyway, I'm having fun with it. Please visit if you'd like. It's also easier to leave comments, so tell me how I'm doing. I doubt I have any ( Read more... )

I can't believe what's happening.  The U.S. government say they have the fucking bastard's cold, dead body to prove it.  I can't stop shaking.  It's just like 9-11, but this time not only is there hope to be had, but it's overwhelming me.

There was a big part of me that believed bin Laden would never be caught, let alone killed, and certainly not by ( Read more... )

Monday is over, but I have plenty to celebrate.  Over the weekend I got a really good start on my second draft of Zack - I still have a ways to go, but right now it feels stronger than before.  What I really need to concentrate on is getting started on my other papers and get my thoughts organized for those.  I hope to employ something like ( Read more... )

So, I found out today that I actually have an entire extra week more than I'd previously thought.  You'd think that that would frustrate me, but I actually feel quite relieved, considering all the crap I have left.  Tonight I've been trying to start my 660 essay, but it's been slow-going.  I had more success with posting to the 660 message ( Read more... )

Engl 830: write 3rd part of paper; read online material

I don't want to report.  Not that I've been lazing around all day (although I could've used my time better).  Just down in the dumps, trying to crawl out.  I read more of Fiction of Culture and added a few more paragraphs to my Garden analysis, which I'm still working on.  I need to go to bed earlier tonight and try not to think about things ( Read more... )

Not my most productive day.  I keep wanting to put off working on forming my notes on My Secret Garden into a cohesive whole.  On the plus side, I did get some reading done for my 660 class essay review.  And on Monday, I got some really positive/constructive feedback on my Zack project.  I'll need to make time to write up the last 20 pps ( Read more... )

Well, I don't know if it was the list thing, but today was put to use pretty well.  I got a couple of things done - only to realize I've yet to post to either message board for my classes.  I've decided to section off my weekend by subject: 703 work first, then 830, then 660.  I hope to start working on my analysis for 830 tomorrow night.  I ( Read more... )
