Happy Samhain!

[felis_ultharus]

A Happy Samhain to those who celebrate it. Now the wheel of the Pagan New Year begins another turn.

I saw terren_divided last Saturday for the first time in years, which was great. and last night, I spent Samhain dining out with em_fish, jenjoou, maidenofirisa, montrealais, rougemacabre, and her husband.

Otherwise, it's been quiet. I've been writing. I spent the morningworking on an essay about how Twelfth Night is Shakespeare's "fuck you" to the Puritans (I didn't phrase it like that, naturally).

In other news, I'm still waiting for my results back for my Comprehensive Exams -- the last serious barrier to my Master's degree. They're being marked by a woman named Bina, whose classes I've been avoiding because she has the reputation of being the school Arch-Postmodernist. Her course descriptions sound like they were all cribbed from Foucault.

Apparently, she'd so late because she's writing a grant proposal. And here I thought she'd just decided marking essays was "bourgeois".

Thank you ^_^

(By the way, I tried to respond to your latest entry on your blog, but it wouldn't let me post.)

I know, something is very wrong with that blog... I'm thinking of going back to LJ unless I'm feeling particularly showy... :)

That'd be great ^_^

(Though I'm so bad at checking my f-list I might not notice for weeks if you start back up.)

Meanwhile, you haven't called me recently on Skype -- should I be trying to call you...?
