I know what you are thinking-wtf did winterlillies just do! Well see I sometimes don't have the time to go check my profile page to see who has friended me, etc. and other times I've returned the favor of the friending but no activity, etc. I do make some public posts, but most of my posts are locked. So how to do you get yourself added you might ask in order to read the good stuff? We must have at least 2 things or more in common-I'd like to be able to share a common interest with someone other than one interest because things can become pretty boring otherwise and one sided, you must update-simple as that no point in friending you if you aren't going to be here and you must leave me a note here with the intrests we have in common. Simple as that.

Now for the rest of you-enjoy the public posts when they are posted. :)

In case you haven't heard the great news-discovergerry.net is now up and running! Go take a look and have fun!

I went from having my dissertation topic approved to having it revoked. The main reason is that both my advisor and course convener feel that to tackle Old French with only 4 months to do the research would limit the type of research I can do and that I need to refer to the original text as much as possible.

So this means that I am back at square one. Especially in terms of the person he suggested I think of researching. I did search the databases, etc and I was feeling pretty confident until I checked the UK database and found out that someone at Oxford did a PhD about 10 years ago on this suggested topic. So now I have to order a copy of the PhD to see what angle this PhD takes (did I mention it’s £10 for a copy) but they can’t guarantee I could receive a copy within the week. I can’t afford to waste another week or two.

How did I piss off the dissertation gods and what do I have to do to go back into their good graces?

Dissertation topic has been approved it’s going to be Philippe de Mezieres and his letter to Richard II!! I just checked email-um yes its going to be 4 am my time but I still need to finish my last paleography assignment. We meet on Wednesday to tackle the question and I'm spending most of tomorrow making a basic list of primary sources for him.

Finally I can breathe a sigh of relief since it's been approved. Now to tackle Old French during my spare time while I read secondary sources.

Now do I want to see Nim's Island tomorrow at 1:15 or do I want to wait to see it on oh lets say Wednesday morning at 10:30 am before my meeting?

For those of you who live in / and around the Albuquerque, NM area-on May 6th at the UNM SUB there will be an listening party for Jason’s new album We Sing We Dance We Steal Things followed by a DVD viewing featuring Mraz!

Um it's 8 something in the morning. Is it too early for a grilled ham and cheese sandwich and a cesar salad? I'm starving.
