And now the pressure's on

Waves hello to:

anr, besyd, callista1159, cheekygal, littlemissscifi, lytarules, nhawk78.

and
triciabyrne1978, splash_the_cat, jemster who friended me a while back and I never said hello to.

I feel loved. And a little panicked because
a)I am supposed to be editing a paper right now (French feminisms and Wide Sargasso Sea: Writing the body). Instead I am replying to comments ( And just so y'all know, that was REALLY weird to come home to. I'm all "let's just check the ole' email . . . what the hell?!?")


b) I have ljfriends! Now I have to actually, y'know, say stuff here. Ack!

Ahhhh. Wide Sargasso Sea . This was my first reading and I've reading over twice (mostly to look for paper stuff, but I would have read it again anyway.)

Our prof made us read Jane Eyre first and then WSS. I hated Jane Eyre. Hated. It. Like. The. Devil. God, I've still got about 20 pages left but I will not read them.

But Wide Sargasso Sea ? God, it's just lush and beautiful and sad and God. It is just so darn good! (And my lack of coherency? Not boding well for the paper that's now due in . . . 10 1/2 hours.)I just want to smack al the charachters upside the head and fix things but that's the beauty. They're all just so well broken.

Sigh.

That's it exactly!

I won't rant more because, well, we both have essays to be getting on with. But that's it right there ;)

Essays, yes. (Quietly closes email/lj)

Ahem. Yes.
