Oh, what a day yesterday. I had my morning class, then home to prepare for my 4-hour night class at that newest school - you remember, the one I've been bitching about? The class is "Introduction to Popular American Culture," and what a great class it was last night!!! One of the best "first" nights I ever had! They think I'm insane, too (I say that a lot don't I? Hmmmm....must be true). So I'm dead tired today since yesterday was an almost 18 hour day, which will continue for the next 4 weeks. It taught me a little lesson about being grumpy since it looks like that new place is pretty cool. Once again I jumped to conclusions. One of our topics, by the way, will be gender roles and identity. If only Meredith could make an appearance!
That check I was waiting for came through. That means we can finally get this program going to preserve what we have. I'm running around like a maniac, and I love every moment of it. It's nice to have some money coming back in to start to pay off these debts that I caused due to my underemployment.
Nena, to answer your question - OF COURSE YOU GET AN AUTOGRAPHED COPY!!!!!! Right now the target publication date is 2005, so it might be a little while!
A QUESTION TO MY EUROPEAN GIRLFRIENDS: One of the comments made in the readings for my class was as to why people in the UK like American shows such as "The Simpsons." I know Mariette loves "Buffy." My first response is BECAUSE THEY LIKE THESE SHOWS YOU IDIOTS!!!! But, girls, if you like these shows and have a special reason why could you please tell me? It would come in handy.
You all write me such beautiful messages and comments. Thank you. I don't want you to go another day without knowing how I feel about you all. You are lifesavers.
