Considering it was my first shift it wasn't too bad.

I don't mean to sound creepy or anything, but I am totally envious of you right now. I want to know anything and everything you're willing to share with me.

My affinity with Derrida came from my resonance with his ideas at a young age. Reading his work made me feel totally validated. Not only did he validate me, but he took what I had been thinking to a far deeper level. The understanding that you have of his work is undoubtedly far greater than my own.

If it's alright with you I'm going to add you to my friends list, and I would very much like it if you added me to yours. And I would love to read any part of your work that you would like to share with me.

I currently own of Grammatology, Writing and Difference, The Margins of Philosophy, and Specters of Marx. I would love any recommendations that you could make.

okay sure, well lets narrow this down a bit, what in particular about Derrida's work interests you? What articles/chapters have you read, or know the best? And what, more specifically, are you studying/writing on?

I too feel very touched by Derrida's writing, firstly when I discovered him as an undergrad. It's since taken over my mode of intellectual inquiry. I'm glad to find a fellow Derridean!
