I Seriously Had No Idea

Do you all know what this is???

Because I always thought it was a very artful, bohemian sketch of a man or woman dancing among some flames. See just there where the leg looks like it is bent and his head looks tilted?

Well, it is no such thing. When I told my roomate the other day that "I just love those artsy decals I see all the time on pickup trucks" she informed me very politely that they were, in fact, deer heads. Profiles of heads of tiny baby deers. Hunted tiny baby deers. Hunted tiny baby deers that are probably laying in the back of the trucks that used to contain the artful people I so admired. :(

To-Do

I'm ever so sorry for not blogging much lately. I have the following to accomplish before the end of the month:

1. A 10-page paper on whether or not Jesus was illiterate (I chose this topic)

2. A 5-7 page paper critiquing an article on the existential life of Joseph in the Bible (I did not choose this topic)

3. A three-page critical or creative commentary on Antony and Cleopatra

4. A three-page critical or creative commentary on The Tempest

5. A 5-7 page critical response to some aspect of the Shakespeare plays I've read this semester (there are 5)

6. A 20-page paper on the History of Thomas Hardy's renowned classic, Tess of the D'urbervilles.

I really do believe in miracles, you guys. And, it's a good thing because it's pretty much going to take one to get all this done. And, is it wrong that I'm crying right now? No, seriously. Weeping. Crocodile tears....which, incidentally, is a phrase we get from an ancient story where the crocodile is said to have wept phony tears for the victims it was about to devour.

Welp, see ya later!
