ramble through the bronx

yes, this here is ramble through the bronx, the continuing musings of a graduate student* who should be writing her dissertation, but honestly, living in new york city there's really so much else to do...

* and her commenting friends. And guest blogger.

My brain is oozing out of my ears

Hey, I don't know what happened to the photos in the last post. They looked fine last week when I put them up, but now they look wonky. I don't know what's up with that.

in other news, I've been working like a madwoman on my dissertation proposal. Today I gave a first draft to my friends Stephen "the Machine" Minister and Doug "the Jesuit" Pierce. I'm going to tinker with it some more tomorrow, and then put a copy in my advisor's mailbox. It's not done, by any means, but it's definitely at the stage where others need to look at it & tell me what needs more/less emphasis, explanation, etc. I can't look at it properly anymore. It's about 22 pages; my bibliography's at about 7 pages.

Oh, and I'm almost done my syllabus for the fall; I dropped off some articles for e-Res (the electronic reserve system). So that's coming along.

Whew. Still need to write that book review, and get the abstracts ready for the Ancient & medieval conference. Oh, and Stephen "the Machine" named me hospitality coordinator for this spring's grad student conference. But I won't really have much to do with that until January (it involves booking the caterers, setting up the continental breakfast stuff, reserving a restaurant for the banquet, seeing that the visiting grad students are put up somewhere, that sort of thing).
