Write Of Way


Written Musings on Writing

Wednesday, April 21, 2004
Yesterday's tasks carry over to today:

1. Read diss chapters and formulate questions for defense.

All while preparing for a visit from the maternal unit. :-)

My to do list is ever growing. I have a ton of work to do this week (including everything that I could do next week) because my mother is coming to visit for a week. That will put a stop to absolutely all scholarly pursuits until she leaves. Because very few things are actually where they are supposed to be (including the box spring sitting in the dining room because the movers couldn't get it upstairs) there is extra work to be done. There are dust bunnies to be captured, beds to be made, satellite receivers to be hooked up (gotta keep her entertained), a numerous other chores.

So what, you may ask, does this have to do with writing? Everything! This is a list of things that will keep me from writing. Not that I don't want my mom to visit, but lately I seem to be opposed to anything that takes me off task. Maybe I'm becoming some kind of hermit????

To Do Today:
1. Finish JR's chapter
2. Prep at least 1 chapter for Friday's defense
3. Grocery shop (hey ya gotta eat in order to write, right?)

Haven't been getting much of my own writing done lately (post Cs) with the end of the semester looming, but I have been prepping for summer classes and dissertation defenses, reading diss chapters, and teaching. I guess sometimes our own writing does suffer a bit. If we could just find a way to get blogging to count toward tenure I'd be a happy camper :-)

I find this weird! LOL


You are a GRAMMAR GOD!


If your mission in life is not already to
preserve the English tongue, it should be.
Congratulations and thank you!


How grammatically sound are you?

Google Bombing for Good
The top site for "jew" on google is currently a hate site. In an attempt to combat this, the blogosphere is google bombing for good. Currently
jewfaq.org is in second place and with continued linking to jewfaq.com we can make it the top google site for the search term "jew".
