Bah, humbug...
Wow, after a plug in Jess' blog, my stats have gone through the roof. That's pleasing.Guess I'd better start being interesting.
The summer school that I teach in every year is gearing up again... thinking about it, one of my first posts here talks about it. Guess that means this blog's about a year old. Guess THAT means I'm nearly done with the first year of my PhD. Oh, Sweet Spaghetti Monster.
Anyway, I'd better start putting thought in to what I'm gonna teach the l'il bastards.
I took a frisbee to the face on Friday. Surprisingly painful, right across the bridge of my nose. Ehhh. Got a bit of a bruise and a cut. Look slightly as if I've been fighting. Grr. Inspired, I got a friend to take clippers to my hair and cut me a mowhawk.
It's received mixed reviews, but I (at least) am very entertained.
Oh unspeakable joy, oh rapture, oh the profundity of my excitment, the next Harry Potter comes out at midnight. Woo, yey. Woop.
Er.
Yey.
No, it's no good, I can't care. I try, I really do.
Sigh. At least people have got used to the books existing now. Means I am no longer bombarded with commands to read them. "omg, you HAVE to read them" No, madam/sir, I do not. I choose not to. Thanks though.
Ah well, I'm happy for the Potter fans. I'm pleased you're all pleased. I shall grin at your excitment and pretend I understand.
GRIN.

I shall most likely be reading it out loud tomorrow. Possibly to myself, in a darkened room. Possibly not. Who knows...
I will proudly bear the scarlett letters HP. I am a fan. I know, I know. I'm a 25 year old female, why do I need to read children's books? Because my roommate in college got me hooked and I must know what happens. It's because I'm too damned curious.
I'm off to get my book in t-minus 2 1/2 hours....
Anon: Well, did you?
Jess: There seems to be no gender / age restriction on HP fannage. Gwan, revel in it. Did you wear a cloak?
No - she didn't pick the story up the whole time i was there, even tho it had just arrived before i did. I was most flattered and impressed.
No cloak. I should've thought of that, though...
