Barman! Satsuma for everyone!
Apr. 30th, 2007 04:37 pmSo, my draft is emailed off to Dr. E--fewer pages than I wanted, but more interesting & coherent than I thought I'd get, so it's a toss-up. I'm feeling fine about it. The last week has been a mixture of feeling fairly nonchalant mixed with long trips of panic, so really I'm just happy to hand in a draft & let someone else mull over it for a while. I expect lots of red pen from Dr. Kangas.
Also, I saw Gaelic Storm last night & OH MAN they were SO GOOD. My first real show, 21+ and surrounded by tipsy people with Guiness in their hands. Oh, man, their music is so ridiculously fun. & people kept buying them shots of whiskey, so the band was getting drunk, too, which only made them sillier but no less amazing. Live shows really do rock more than anything. Also dad mentioned me taking up the fiddle again--because I was figuratively drooling over the talent of the fiddle player, a small blond woman who'd only played twice with the band before-& I have to say it's tempting. Something, in any case. I want to make music. (Only one more thing: JIMMY BUFFET YOU BASTARD!) (Also, I think my ears were still ringing this morning. My voice was hoarse, still, too. Oh, shows.)
& Hey! Also, I found out that Great Big Sea is playing the zoo in July. I am so there. You'd better be there too.
& now all I have left is to draw the little black lines on my genealogies (fun! It's like art class!) & then Erin & I have made a moratorium on homework for the rest of the night. Plus in a couple hours all the thesis kids are going to Elysian & Dr. E is buying us a drink. Man. Feels good to hit a deadline...
