perhaps to make up for the EMP rejection, the email gods sent me a nice piece of news two days ago: I'll be teaching my first class this summer: GLBT Perspectives on Popular Music. I'm TAing for that very class right now, and it's definitely a course I was meant to teach. (I'm a queer musicologist, for god's sake!)
Musicology peeps: what about the rest of you? who's teaching what this summer? anyone have any other exciting summer plans in the works? my 2007 fantasy summer consists of (a) going to paris for a few weeks (b) working with CT and YA in some shape or form (c) going on another roadtrip with laurens & (d) teaching my first course. (i'm not sure it's possible to do all of that this summer, but i'm sure as hell gonna try!)
anyways, i just wanted to let ya'll know i'm feeling better and also say thanks for the nice, supportive comments ya'll left me a few days ago. i'm definitely going to apply to lots of conferences in the future and probably even EMP again (if the theme appeals to me), but I was disappointed about not being able to present this particular paper about car songs and alienation.
