a long time
so it's after 3.30 and i'm home in grapevine, #727.
i loaded up blogger 'cuz i figured i'd had some stuff to say, despite not knowing who i'm talking to...so maybe i don't have anything to say.
so much is happening. alwyas, though, right?
Matt has a new friend, eddie a new son-to-be-born-next-spring, walt'll have a wife soon... and i'm going to the tree trimming party! I've told Gina that I can't wait to walk around my house with a glass of wine in my hand and a name-tag on my back.
Just finished (couple days ago) a paper I'm calling "The End of Epic? Examining the Epic Tradition in the Shadow of the Holocaust". I was pretty intimidated to undertake the topic; my professor, Dr. Fred Turner, studied at Oxford (knew J. R. R. Tolkien), quotes Milton and Shakespeare like it's the Princess Bride or So I Married an Axe Murderer, and has written two epic poems, one about the ofunding of America, and another, over 300 pages, about humans building a new civilization on Mars. So, yeah, what do I know in light of this guy? So I'm anxious and eager to get this paper back as early as next week, maybe. We'll see what happens.
Now I'm on to another project for my Literary Theory class, treating the Jewish Museum of Berlin as a text. I'm thrilled about it, but it's going to be pretty difficult since there's so much to say about the JM Berlin. And then I find out that the Mueseum is considered an exercise in "Deconstructionist architecture"........ and my professor studied under Derrida in Paris....so, once again, What do I have to say?
We'll see.
