Blahg, Blahg, Blahg

I'm on Spring Break and it's snowing. But I'm on Spring Break, biotch!

Jen, if you're actually reading this, I'm going to call you this week! No, really I will!!


Spring Break means I can actually work uninterrupted by, you know, actual classes and other sundry and related responsibilities. I guess you know you're getting old when you're actually excited to be on Spring Break so you can work on projects as opposed to doing body shots (not that I ever did those). The only shot I'll be in proximity to this week is a wheatgrass shot (um, not that I'd do one of those either) since an old friend and I are getting together and going to a spa to get pedicures! I've never had one, so I'm really stoked.


Projects I want to jumpstart, finish, or work on that I'm actually excited to be working on: Brothel Drama in the early twentieth century (yes it's an actual genre, who knew?); a paper on the historiography of the Salem witch trials; a paper on 80's young adult fiction; a paper on 80's music videos (the latter two for a conference on pop culture); and compile a DVD for my 101 class on the "isms" (surrealism, expressionism, symbolism, etc) by using things like Nine Inch Nails videos, the "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) by the Eurythmics video, and other "weird" music videos to teach the stuff in theatre that isn't straight-forward, realism. This is stuff I either have to do for classes or need to get working on for panel conferences outside of school, but I really am excited about each of these projects. I just hope I don't procrastinate. But, that's up to me, really.

Aint it cute when you have all these ambitions and intentions? Let's see where I am by March 16...
