Oh, hi.
Haven't posted in like twenty years. Decided not to apply to grad school this semester, but to continue writing up my applications and editing my writing sample. Now I'm applying to something like the JET program, only in Russia.
Michelle and I may be writing up a dictionary of Chai the Cat's Mrows. They are open to some interpretation, and we suspect that some Hampshire student could write an excellent Div 3 on Varying Interpretations of Mrow: An Interdisciplinary Hot-Mess of Linguistics, Zoology, and Pure Fantasy.
Sample Entry:
Mrow
-Noun
1. Food, consumable material
2. A dearth of consumable material, as evidenced by the empty bowl you see before me
3. Water, throat lubrication
4. The paucity of lubrication for the throat, a lack of quenching substance
5. Cuddles, affection
6. An insufficiency of cuddles, affection
7....
8.... and so on, ad infinitum
In other news, Mrow.
