It is late and I am at school, but I have not blogged in a while so here we go. First, I am so close yet so far from a thesis topic that it is insane! But, I have a good chunk of the faculty here at school pretty excited about my potential topic that I am starting to get excited, but also nervous that I may be biting off more than I can chew. (Guess that is how they weed out the weak though) Secondly, it is the holiday in retail land and I am holding on for dear life trying to just get through. I want to finish the semester strong and then get a good handle on the thesis proposal, but I am beginning to feel like I am letting everyone down. The third thing is the whole kick that the christian world seems to be on about community. Personally I am quite sick of it. Mostly because it is kinda silly. we sit around in our circles talking about how great community is, but then when someone falls off the face of the earth for a month there are no questions, no accountability just nice to see you. It is hard to believe that there is a true sense of community amoungst Christians when no one notices that your gone.

Yes, I know you are all wondering what this grand thesis topic is going to be...well I am not going to post it on the Internet for all to see. the world of English Literature is quite competitive and one has to keep the slight advantage all that they can. But, if you ask nicely I will tell you privately.

cheers
