weird.

i got an A in early modern british women's lit. my final paper was a few pages short. but she said she wouldn't count. yay.

our room is empty. the beds are unbunked. i have to officially say goodbye tomorrow.

i got an email reply from william labov!!! for all of you non-linguists out there(which is everyone except for mandy), he's a famous linguist who did all this research in regard to aave and dialectal variations. i found a spelling error on one of his pages and being the dork that i am, i emailed him and told him. his reply was very short, but i have an email, in my inbox from william labov.
