I would just like to state for the record--as though I have not stated this enough--that Dr. E is my hero, my saviour, & everything else I could possibly want in an advisor. Why do I always forget how helpful she is when I'm all depressed? I had a meeting with her today about my outline (the one I thought was terrible--& it's not awesome, but it's so much better than I thought) & we talked for an hour & a half, mostly about the tangent we went off on, about Margaret's childhood, which ended up with us mining Wikipedia & marveling over Rene d'Anjou's hundred titles & the exploits of his wife Isabel of Lorraine & how fantastically crazy Margaret's childhood would have been. & you know what else? It's all completely applicable to my thesis--no, let me rephrase that, it's necessary to my thesis. & you know what else? I'm pretty sure that's a good three pages right there. Plus all of the expansion I have to do about everything else that I actually know more about than I think I do. Plus rambling about John of Fortescue, who is a slippery little bastard & kind of funny. Also Anne of France & her lesson to her daughter, which includes a part about not picking your nose, of all things.
& when I came into her office she handed me a photocopy of one of her articles, printed at last! & on the top it has written "to Kenna, fondly, Theresa," & she told me that now that I've given a paper at a conference, we're peers & I've graduated to first name use. Gar. Well I just... I mean...well, um. Incoherent with academic geeky glee.

& entirely unrelated, but still important:
Do you want to hear me perform in a student directed RADIO PLAY? Yes, you do. Because...
a) radio plays are super awesome & we have to prove to Steve G that they're not a dead art form,
b) it's about a kid called Marlowe "Mars" Martin, & really, is there a better name?
c) I play the cigarette-smoking vaguely-bad girl love interest, or
d)all of the above. If you picked "d" you are correct.

Go to KSUB's website & click on the "listen now!" link to the left to tune in & listen on Saturday April 21st at 8pm.

Woahwoahwoah, this IS going be recorded right? I'm not sure I'm going to be anywhere near a computer at 10pm central time, and I definitely want to hear this!

I hope so! I think Cody's recording them, but I'll talk to him & do what I can.

Um...

So It's 8:05 pacific time, Saturday the 21st. I'm listening to mediocre garage rock on KSUB's online broadcast. They just had an announcement that they'll be discussing a news story about water on Mars in 15 minutes. Did I screw up somehow?

It might have something to do with this (http://www.live365.com/broadcast/scheduler/index.live) not having anything in common with this (http://www.seattleu.edu/ksub/sked.shtml).

man! i'm sorry...i thought it was actually starting at 8 but we didn't start until eight thirty or something...it was strange. i don't think this one was recorded but apparently there's a way to record that cody didn't know, so if i'm in any more they will be.

omg no! I want to hear that terribly but I'm not sure I'll be home by then (it'll be 11 my time). If I am you'd better believe I'll be listening! If not will they have it in the archives or something?
