It's been for me!

Cause guess who I got to come to Lunacon?

Melissa Marr, the author of Wicked Lovely!

w00t!!!

I rave about her book, here

And, as if that weren't awesome enough, my teaching is going really, really well. I gave Virginia Vaughan, Shakespeare scholar extrordinaire, an insight she'd never had before in my comparison of Bassianus ( Read more... )

Anyone want a pair of really awesome Mika tickets? Or know anyone who might?

So, Lunacon folks should come over at 7ish tonight. Plan to stay for about 2-3 hours. Please bring a laptop if you have one (ddrpolaris, you can use Pemby since your laptop can't connect to the interwebs). I'll be making dinner, which may or may not be done at 7. You guys know how I am about saying things start at one time and the actual start time. I've ( Read more... )

So yeah, forget that earlier, happy-go-lucky post. I should have known that something was going to come along and fuck shit up. Once again, I'm getting raped (this time with--NEW!--glass shards [TM]!!!) by the fucking administration. For once, however, it isn't Uconn who's doing, it's the goddamn GRE's. Let's loom at this objectively, shall we ( Read more... )

I was having this great conversation with my Chris the other day. We were discussing my room and my inability to keep the stupid thing neat and tidy. So, after talking about it for about ten minutes (amazingly with no pauses for Queen of the Bed--I still have a lump) we decided that my room is actually entropy in progress. It starts in a state of ( Read more... )

So far this semester, my GPA's only a 3.567 (no, seriously, it is) I'm still waiting for 2 more grades, but my English 271 grade was an A-. not an A. I pout. I shall have to e-mail Prof. Eby and ask where I went wrong. I expected an A! Waaaahhh ( Read more... )
