fall cedes to winter

    it’s almost the end of the semester. I’ve got one more paper to write — rather, to finish, thankfully. It’s almost there. then an exam in my Roman Tradition class, to which I’m not really looking forward. perhaps an exam in Tragedy, but I’m not really quite sure what that will entail. Nicole and I are having a Thanksgiving get-together tomorrow, which will be awesome. I’m really looking forward to it, especially since neither of us can go home, and we were cool with providing a place for others similarly stranded for the holiday. (more…)

    school is winding down. less than a month left. I’ve done pretty well I think throughout, and I’m really excited to have a teaching position next semester. That’s definitely going to be great. I’ve not written mostly because I’ve been busy writing papers and up all night studying and such. I’ve been pretty out of it these days, just listening to a lot of music and podcasts lately. hanging out with friends. kicking Lucretius’ ass. writing papers, and more papers. trying to stay afloat in a sea of not-money.
    This weekend we’re hosting a lecture series here. Dr. Gregory Nagy is one of the speakers, which is pretty awesome, and I’m really looking forward to hearing his paper. I’ve been looking forward to this ever since I saw the announcement. Nicole’s pretty excited too about it — it’ll be a fun time.
    I don’t have a whole lot more to say right now, my brain’s kinda scrambled. Just listening to some music and winding down before bed. Take care.

        These days my entries have been more fractured and less focused. Such is life. I do what I can to give a glimpse into my life, a snapshot if possible. I hope you enjoy it nonetheless.

        talk to me if you'd like to know something about me, or keep reading. I'm still a poor grad student and working on my PhD. I don't really know whether this will become a book anymore, but it's not wholly improbable.
