2/9/07 - added photos for the contestants going on to Hollywood
8:01 - Oh, Katharine. *sigh* You know, her CD’s out now. I should go pick it up, even if it is r&b-corrupted pop. Hey, you know, I sort of thought it was Olivia Newton-John in the brief clip yesterday! But [...]

I hadn’t read the poem before (Old English and modern English text here), but it’s hauntingly [...]

I feel like writing something, for whatever reason, so I guess I’ll write about William Cowper, since I’m giving a presentation on him tomorrow. Of course, the time I spend writing about him here would probably be better spent working on my handout and stuff, but hey. I’ve got like seven hours tomorrow [...]

I have a presentation tomorrow. So I procrastinated yesterday by buying a fish…to replace the one that died like a year and a half ago back when I lived in St. Louis. Say hi to Theo!
He hasn’t eaten any of the food I’ve given him yet, though. It’s leftover from last year…maybe [...]
