Boy the time goes by quickly. I didn't feel well on Saturday. My brain wouldn't work right; I couldn't comprehend any amount of reading, which is especially unfortunate because that's just about all my work. I couldn't find the one movie I needed to watch and stupid Blockbuster didn't send it to me, so I'm not sure how I'll see it before Wednesday. Hopefully somebody in the class will have a copy I can borrow. I do allow myself to buy movies that I need for class with no remorse or guilt because these are the texts that I am studying. I am leery of these art films though. I enjoy many of them, but they are so often hit or miss, and I'd hate to spend 30 bucks only to find out this one was a miss.
The two papers I submitted to MCLLM (Midwest Conference of Language, Literature and Media, or something like that) were accepted. Yeah. I'm building my cv, so by the time I graduate everyone will want to hire me to teach. Yes, often schools hire people based on their publications, but their job is to instruct. Silly, huh? As interesting as research is, that's not really what I want to do, but I've got to play by the rules if I want to win the game.
