Decisions, decisions
So, I need to make a decision about getting a car or not getting car. Portland's public transportation system is nice and robust, but getting to campus is a pain (40 minutes door-to-door rather than the 15 it would be if I drove; it gets worse when the shuttle isn't running, which it only does when school is in session).

monthly cost of car in a city

Win!!!
After 1.5 all-nighters, version 2.0 is done. 179 pages of text, 299 footnotes, about 47000 words, 10 pages of bibliography. I know there are parts that still need work but overall I think it might not be half bad.

Painful but doable
My defense will be July 15. I have to finish my draft June 1. I still have 1/3 to revise, so it will be a race. Classes end today; I have finals to correct and some busywork to enter for my culture course, but otherwise, largely done. Expecting not
very much sleep. This will be painful but good. Hard deadlines get me to finish shit, so I will.
