My EC paper was a joke - the last three pages were just me orgasming over Donna Haraway, and the rest of it was just a haphazard list of the names of theorists. I wish I had the nerve to be Anthony, who said: "Guess what, I'm doing 5 pages and 3 theorists. He should be happy I'm doing it at all." (we were supposed to do 7 pages and 10 theorists ( Read more... )

Poll Whose poetry should I write my lengthy HD paper about?

So goes the "analysis" of Plath's "Daddy" that just came to me over my 20th Century Poetry listserve. It really gives me a whole new way to look at that poem. I feel enlightened now ( Read more... )

Now, before I register for us, we need a name. So, everyone reading this, think of a name for us! Make it hot enough to reflect the hotness of the people in the group so far (which, if you don't know, is a high level of hotness).

Does anyone want to register for AIDS Walk NY with me? It's May 16th. I figured I'd ask here and we could get a team going?

I am inexplicably exhausted and feeling rather ass. It's weird, because I slept quite a bit last night. As a result, I know I failed my Women/Public Policy exam this morning - I know I always say that, but this exam was based on the memorization of about 100 US court cases about women's employment, and I simply didn't study. I couldn't ( Read more... )
